Die cutting machines are tools used to cut shapes and designs from various materials, such as paper, cardstock, and fabric. They work by using a die, which is a metal template with a specific shape, to press down on the material, creating precise cuts. These machines are popular in crafting, packaging, and manufacturing industries for their ability to produce consistent and intricate designs quickly. There are different types of die cutting machines, including manual and electronic versions. Manual die cutting machines require physical effort to operate, while electronic die cutting machines use motors for automated cutting. Both types are valuable for artists, hobbyists, and businesses looking to create custom products efficiently.
