Applications
DPC-400 Digital Die Cutter: Custom-Shaped Prints without Dies
The DPC-400 Digital Die Cutter from Duplo USA combines precision and flexibility for your die cutting needs. Whether you’re cutting paper, laminates, or synthetic substrates, the DPC-400 allows you to create complex shapes and designs with ease.
No Dies Required
Utilizing the DPC Controller software, the triple tooling head follows the lines sketched on the cut file to finish into any shape desired. Media holds in place on the flatbed through a suction zone below the conveyor belt as the tooling head moves throughout the sheet.
The DPC-400 comes included with four cutting tools and a scoring wheel. Up to 3 tools can be added in the tooling head. Set them to cut intricate shapes, kiss cut labels and stickers, and score fold lines for packaging and folded pieces. Lamination may be required to prevent cracking.
Automated Operation
Sheets are fed onto the flatbed automatically. The CCD registration system reads the QR code and pulls up the matching cut file on the DPC Controller. Job changeovers are automatic, increasing turnaround times. The CCD also reads all four registration marks and compensates for any image shifts that may have occurred.
Job preparation functions, including the application of registration marks and QR code, can be automatically performed using Fiery JobFlow. This integration enables you to create a timesaving workflow that reduces errors and downtime
With a stack height of 3.9”, the DPC-400 maintains its productivity. Each sheet is vacuum fed with the air knife aiding in separation. The feed tray elevates as sheets feed through and it can be reloaded without interrupting operation
Whether you’re creating custom packaging, direct mail pieces, or promotional materials, the DPC-400 ensures your job gets done quickly and accurately. It’s an affordable and versatile solution for prototyping your designs and sample productions.
