Cutting die pricing, files and delivery.

A cutting die consists of hardened steel blades set into a wood or metal base using a CNC laser. Mounted on a press, it cuts carton, paper, labels, packaging and plastic into the desired shape. It is the core tool in box, label and packaging production.

Carton, corrugated board, kraft, label paper, PVC, PET, NBR rubber, aluminium, copper and natural and synthetic leather. CNC fiber-laser bases guarantee 0.05 mm tolerance for precision cutting, creasing and perforation; rule height is adjusted to material thickness as required.

A BOBST die set is a precision cutting tool system used on large packaging production machines. Delivered as a complete 4-piece set: standard cutting blade, male blade, female blade and pre-stripping module.

Yes. We manufacture creasing blades, perforation blades, steel rule, blade bending work and custom cutting dies for box, label and packaging production.

A label cutting die is used for roll labels, sheet labels, stickers, kiss-cut and custom-shape cutting. Depending on size and material, 23.8 mm, 8–12 mm and project-specific blade solutions are available.

Our line produces dies from 5×5 cm small label cutters up to 160×120 cm large-format box and corrugated dies. Full-size base plates for BOBST 102 and 142 machines are kept in stock.

Standard hardened-steel rules are produced at 23–24 HRC and reach 200,000–500,000 impressions under correct use. Lifespan varies by material cut (corrugated, carton, label), press pressure, rubber quality and machine maintenance. Die maintenance and re-sharpening service is also offered.

Birch plywood base is the most common and economical choice for standard box, label and packaging dies. Aluminium base is preferred for high-volume BOBST and large-format corrugated dies; it is more resistant to heat, moisture and deformation. Contact us via WhatsApp to determine which base suits your application.

Kiss-cut cuts only the label's paper layer while leaving the liner (backing paper) intact; it is used for roll label and sticker production. In a full cut, the blade passes through all layers. Liner thickness and construction are shared in advance for kiss-cut dies.

8 mm rule height is used for thin liners and low-profile label cutting; 12 mm for standard labels and high-volume dies; 23.8 mm for high-speed roll-label machines. Optimum rule height is recommended based on machine model and material thickness.

Corrugated board dies require a harder blade profile, typically an aluminium base and heavier steel rule; pressure requirements are significantly higher than carton dies. Flat carton and kraft dies are produced on standard birch plywood base. Both die types are produced on our line.

A cutting die's price is built from four components: outer dimension (laser run-time per cm²), base material (birch plywood, MDF or aluminium), blade type and total length (cutting, creasing, perforation, steel rule) and order quantity. For BOBST sets, the number of pieces (standard, male, female, pre-stripping) directly affects the total; for label dies, rule height (8–12 mm, 23.8 mm) and kiss-cut setting are decisive. Send size, material and quantity via WhatsApp and a clear quote arrives within 12 minutes.

No. We accept orders starting from a single die. We work with small print shops, businesses and individual customers alike.

A label cutting die's price depends on label dimensions, rule height (8 mm, 12 mm or 23.8 mm), kiss-cut or full-cut setting, roll vs sheet workflow and order quantity. Irregular shapes increase laser cut time and price. Send label size, quantity and liner spec via WhatsApp for a clear quote.

BOBST cutting dies are usually priced as a set: standard cutting blade, male blade, female blade and pre-stripping (stripping) module. Single-piece replacement is also priced separately. Set price is determined by machine model (BOBST 102, 142, Mastercut) and outer dimension.

Yes. Production-side dimension, creasing or cutting errors are revised or remade free of charge. Every die is test-cut and dimension-checked before shipment; production faults reported within 7 days of delivery are taken into our priority line.

Bank transfer / wire is preferred for upfront payment. Regular corporate customers are offered 30–60 day deferred payment after invoicing. For first orders, deferred terms can be discussed after sample and trial production.

Yes. A single proof die is produced for new projects or blind profiles. Serial production begins after the proof print is approved. Proof cost can be offset against the subsequent serial order; simply mention this via WhatsApp before ordering.

To renew a previously ordered die, simply send your order number or the die's dimensions via WhatsApp. A new die with the same specifications is produced within 2–4 hours from the drawing already in our archive. If the material or size has changed, just mention it.

An invoice including VAT is issued for every order. Electronic invoices are sent to e-invoice and e-archive taxpayers; e-archive invoices for other customers. Individual customers must provide billing details at the time of ordering.

Yes. We run a separate priority line for urgent orders. Standard-size box, label and BOBST dies are produced in 4–18 hours under normal conditions and 2–6 hours for urgent jobs. Same-day motorbike courier within Istanbul, next-day express cargo nationwide. To open a priority slot, send the deadline and file via WhatsApp in advance.

Standard-size box and label dies are produced in 4–18 hours; custom dies and large BOBST sets in 1–2 business days. Same-day motorbike courier within Istanbul and next-day express cargo across Turkey. Every die is test-cut and dimension-checked before shipment.

Yes. After production in Istanbul, cutting dies, box dies, label cutting dies and BOBST die sets are shipped across Turkey by courier or cargo.

Yes. We ship internationally, primarily to Europe, the Middle East and North Africa. Customs documents, invoice and packing list are prepared by us. International delivery takes 3–7 business days depending on the carrier. Send the destination country and postcode via WhatsApp for a quote.

When you receive the die, check: blade positions and tightness, creasing and perforation lines for design accuracy, and that the base dimensions match the order. We apply a test print to every die before shipping; we can share the print image via WhatsApp before handing over to the carrier. Report any production-side discrepancy within 7 days of delivery.

We evaluate same-day delivery requests individually. Requirements for standard box and label dies: drawing or dimensions submitted by 11:00, order must be within Istanbul, and available capacity in our production queue. For larger custom BOBST sets, a wait of 4–8 hours is possible. Capacity can be checked via WhatsApp before committing to a delivery date.

Routine urgent production is not carried out outside business hours (Friday 16:00 – Monday 08:00). Weekend and late-night urgent orders are prioritised early Monday morning and expedited during operational hours. For exceptional situations such as exhibitions, stands or press stoppages, explain your situation via WhatsApp; requests are evaluated based on available capacity.

Size, material and quantity information is enough to start. PDF, AI, DXF or a simple sketch can be sent via WhatsApp. No drawing? Just describe it — we'll draft it. Quote arrives within 12 minutes.

PDF, AI, DXF, technical drawings, measured images or simple sketches are suitable. If you do not have a file, size, material and quantity details are enough for an initial quote; technical confirmation is sent before production starts.

Yes, send your request to info@ikramlazer.com. However, our WhatsApp channel provides much faster turnaround (avg. 12 minutes). Email requests are generally answered same business day within working hours. Include size, material, quantity and deadline in your email; attach a PDF or DXF if available.
