2.1 Unboxing and Inspection​

Component​

Description​

Main unit​

The core body of the die cutting machine​

Cutting dies​

Customizable blades for specific shapes (store in a dry, dust-free case)

Pressure plate

Evenly distributes pressure during cutting​

Control panel​

Features include speed adjustment, pressure settings, and emergency stop

 

 

2.2 Power Connection​

  • Connect the machine to a grounded power outlet matching the rated voltage (specified on the machine label).​

  • Turn on the main power switch located on the rear of the machine. The control panel display should illuminate.​

 

3. Operation Steps​

3.1 Prepare Materials​

  1. Select materials (e.g., paper, plastic, fabric) within the machine's thickness capacity (check user manual for specifications).​

  1. Cut materials into sheets slightly larger than the cutting die to allow for alignment.​

3.2 Install the Cutting Die​

  1. Power off the machine and wait for all moving parts to stop.​

  1. Open the die installation compartment by loosening the locking lever.​

  1. Place the cutting die blade-side up onto the magnetic base plate. Ensure it is centered and securely attached.​

  1. Tighten the locking lever to secure the compartment.​

3.3 Set Parameters​

  1. On the control panel:​

  • Adjust cutting speed (recommended starting speed: 50% of maximum).​

  • Set pressure level based on material thickness (use the pressure adjustment knob or digital input).​

  1. Perform a test cut with a scrap material to verify settings.​

3.4 Load and Align Materials​

  1. Place the material sheet on the worktable, aligning it with the registration marks.​

  1. Lower the pressure plate until it gently touches the material surface.​

3.5 Start Cutting​

  1. Press the start button on the control panel. The machine will begin the cutting cycle.​

  1. Do not touch the material or machine during operation.​

  1. After cutting is complete, the machine will automatically stop.​

3.6 Unload Finished Products​

  1. Raise the pressure plate and remove the cut pieces from the worktable.​

  1. Use a small brush to clean any debris from the cutting die and work area.​

 

4. Maintenance and Care​

4.1 Daily Maintenance​

  • Wipe the worktable and pressure plate with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and debris.​

  • Inspect the cutting die for any bent blades or material residue. Clean with a mild solvent if necessary.​

4.2 Weekly Maintenance​

  • Lubricate the machine's moving parts (e.g., guide rails, lead screws) with the recommended lubricant (specified in the manual).​

  • Check the tightness of all screws and bolts on the machine frame.​

4.3 Blade Replacement​

  1. When blades become dull (indicated by ragged cuts), power off and unplug the machine.​

  1. Remove the old die and install a new, sharp cutting die following the installation procedure in Section 3.2.​

 

5. Troubleshooting​

Issue​

Possible Cause​

Solution​

Incomplete cuts​

Insufficient pressure​

Increase pressure setting​

Material shifting​

Poor alignment​

Re-align material using registration marks​

Unusual noise​

Loose components​

Tighten all screws and bolts​

Machine not starting​

Power failure​

Check power connection and circuit breaker​

6. Storage​

  • When not in use, cover the machine with a dust-proof cover.​

  • Store cutting dies in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight to prevent blade corrosion.​

What is the difference between hot stamping and UV printing?
Hot stamping uses heat/pressure to transfer foil for metallic/luxury effects, ideal for high-volume rigid materials. UV printing cures ink with UV light for full-color, quick-drying results on diverse surfaces, better for small batches/variable designs.
