Correct placement, height and amount of die ejection rubber can make or break the performance of a cutting die. Due to the vast variety of flat and rotary cutting die designs and corrugated flute combinations, we approach rubber placement for each die differently. Through information we learn through research and working closely with customers, we use this knowledge to continuously train our employees so that they may better understand actual problems on press.

Based on the operating environment we expertly apply the proper placement and amount of die ejection rubber. We know the amount of relief needed per product based on intimately understanding and evaluating  various materials, processes, and press tonnage.

Since a die cuts contain many different sized pieces in an individual project, balance is imperative. Considering that ejection force should be equal for each sized piece in the die – larger areas need harder rubber and smaller areas need softer rubber. This balance ensures that ejection forces are similar, regardless of area size. A balanced die is an accurate die and at Jamison, we apply our knowledge of die ejection rubber placement and die balance to every project we design and complete for our customers.
