Industrial Die-Cutting FAQs - Ask an Engineer
JBC converts many different thin, flexible materials for industrial applications, including pressure-sensitive adhesives, foams, films, sponge-rubbers, nonwovens, custom multi-layer laminates, and more.
JBC manufactures custom die-cut components for many industrial applications, including gasketing, sealing, thermal & electrical insulation, sound & vibration damping, cushioning, bonding, joining, fastening, and more. We also serve many diverse industrial segments, including HVAC, appliance, transportation, data center, and electronic applications.
Yes. We routinely recommend part presentation features such as extended liners, pull tabs, kiss-cut parts, roll-fed formats, and custom packaging solutions that reduce operator time and support automated assembly processes for faster throughput and lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). Die-cut components from JBC are optimized for easier assembly, handling, and production line integration.
Tolerance capability depends on material thickness, part geometry, and die-cutting method. Our engineering team reviews the application of each part and determines the best die-cutting process to achieve the required performance and dimensional accuracy.
Yes. We frequently design parts specifically for automated assembly systems, including roll-fed formats, consistent part orientation, liner configurations, and presentation methods optimized for robotic pick-and-place equipment.
Through our vertically integrated approach to the die-cutting process, we provide value throughout the entire manufacturing process. We can help optimize material yield, part presentation & handling, supply chain management, and inventory strategies for a leaner, more efficient manufacturing process.
Yes! As a vertically integrated converter, JBC can laminate and die-cut materials into a single finished component to help reduce part count, simplify assembly, and improve consistency across high-volume runs.
While JBC does not typically distribute raw materials, our status as a 3M™ Preferred, Avery Dennison ADVantage, and Rogers Preferred Converter grants us preferential pricing and sourcing opportunities for die-cutting projects that require innovative performance materials.
Overcoming Supply Chain Issues
Top Challenges facing OEMs and How JBC Technologies Drives Success
Looking to strengthen your supply chain while reducing overall deployment costs?
In this e-book, we highlight five major issues OEMs and suppliers often encounter—and how JBC helps address them:
- Material shortages that disrupt production schedules
- Shutdowns or restructuring at once-dependable converters
- Converters that are either too large or too limited to deliver the right level of support
- Extended lead times from offshore suppliers
- Too many suppliers - driving up assembly piece costs
