Benefits of Cast Cutting Pads & Boards
- High quality cutting surface to decrease tool wear, increase pad wear and deliver cleaner cuts.
- Manufacturing process involves longer cycle times of heating & cooling the PP material.
- Higher degree of parallelism tolerance and significantly reduce tension which eliminates the bowing effect commonly seen with extruded plastic pads.
- Cast polypropylene cutting boards are specifically designed for die cutting applications and are proven to provide better cutting quality, increased pad wear, better tooling wear which equates to less defective parts & increased production.
