    2. Complete die tool set from one machine Dieboards Counter plates(phenolic and thin plate) Strippers Blankers Sample Making(folding carton, corrugated and PVC) Flat Stamping and Embossing Dies Dieboard Ejection Rubber(limited materials)

    3. EXISTING INDUSTRY SOLUTIONS Manual Methods(Jig Saws) Works, but needed improvements. Labor Intensive, Inconsistent Quality Slow Throughput

    4. EXISTING SOLUTIONS(cont) Automated Methods Laser Dieboards Changed the industry. Good product, increased production. For several years, represented THE dieboard standard Why doesn’t everyone own a laser ? Cost entry barriers Not a complete Die Tool Solution EPA Issues

    5. LASER PROCESS Gerber is very familiar with lasers Considered as part of our engineering efforts. Limited material and process flexibility Technology cost high

    6. LASER DIECUTTING

    7. LASER KERF

    9. LAMINATION PROCESS Strong, fast acting adhesive. Non-toxic. Powerful Vacuum Press, 12.77 psi. 15 minute cycle time Un-attended Operation

    10. GERBER DIEBOARD Maximizes Steel Rule to Dieboard Contact Area. Excellent: Rule-holding Verticality Accuracy Steel Rule ALWAYS supported by 3x kerf width.

    11. Dieboard Summary Excellent rule holding 3X Kerf Width at top AND Bottom Patented cutting tool for fast cutting 2 pt @ 70 ipm 3 pt @ 110 ipm 4 pt, 6 pt and counters over 200 ipm

    12. Counter plates Precise Depth Control Multiple materials and thickness Easy change-over from plywood Over 100 ipm cutting speeds Dieworks Software calculations handle any size creasing channel widths

    13. Strippers and Blankers Consistency and Automatic Process Topside chamfer to reduce snagging Underside chamfer for stripping relief Male and female strippers/blankers

    15. THE GERBER PROFILE COMPLETE SYSTEM Die Works CAM software Cutting table(53”x101” cutting area) ATC(10 Tool Capacity and Spindle) Vacuum pump(10 HP, 3 phase) Vacuum press(Profile Press 24 or Profile Press 48)

    16. OTHER CONSIDERATIONS Small Footprint, Approx. 15’ x 21’ allows room for equipment and working space Low maintenance Table, Spindle and Vacuum Pump runs on 230 VAC 3 or 1 phase Pneumatics for ATC and spindle cooling(110 psi @ 10cfm). Environmentally Friendly

    17. Potential External Purchase Considerations PC and CAD Design Software(This is a Must). Die Works CAM Software does not have CAD design capability. If you have CAD, does your staff need training on dietool design for counters, strippers blankers, etc. Dedicated Compressor(Clean, Dry Air is a Must). A Dedicated Compressor purchase may/may not be required Depends on: Existing air consumption Desire to cut metals.
