A die-cutting machine is a device used to cut materials into specific shapes and designs. It operates by using a sharp metal die that presses down on the material, such as paper, cardboard, or fabric, to create precise cuts. This process is commonly used in industries like packaging, printing, and crafts. There are various types of die-cutting machines, including manual and electronic models. Manual machines require physical effort to operate, while electronic machines can automate the cutting process for increased efficiency. These machines are essential tools for businesses that need consistent and accurate shapes for their products, such as labels, boxes, and craft projects.
