The die cut corrugated cardboard boxes take longer
to make because a cardboard cutting tool has to be made
so it can stamp out and cut the cardboard to make the
box. The normal delivery time for a corrugated cardboard
die cut is 2 weeks. The cost of a cardboard cutting
toll depends on the size and quantity ordered. Small
quantities and not too large (maximum blank area 1200
X 1200 mm) are made on a flat bed cardboard corrugated
die cut machine. For this type of cardboard die cut
a cutting forme is made from plywood, with blades cut
into the plywood typical cost can be around £250.00+
vat.
Our roller press die cutter can cut any corrugated
cardboard the size of 1500mm width x 3 metre in length.
The roller press can cut single wall cardboard corrugated,
double wall cardboard corrugated, and triple wall cardboard
corrugated. Plastic corrugated can also be cut to make
plastic corrugated re usable tote trays and boxes. This
method of die cutting as well as small quantities is
used for high volume milk/drinks/food trays which are
often being erected by machines to form the finished
trays; the die cutting machine used for this type of
corrugated cardboard die cut manufacturing is a Bobst
machine. This machine is used for plain un printed die
cutting and can produce perfect flat die cuts completely
stripped of any cardboard waste.
The larger and printed corrugated die cuts are made
on a rotary die cutter, which instead of stamping the
corrugated cardboard to form the box impression, rolls
over the board using pressure and a large roller effect,
this machine also has print stations on it and can print
up to 4 cols using a flexographic process to print on
the corrugated cardboard. The cost of these formes ban
be between £600.00- £1,500, as they are
often made from steel rather than plywood.
Typical use for a die cut box is a bread tray used
in bakeries as a substitute for the plastic trays when
they have all disappeared!, produce cardboard corrugated
trays such as lettuce boxes, tomatoes boxes, meat boxes,
chicken trays, drinks trays, display boxes, display
