Printing die manufacturing
Printing die manufacturing in Istanbul for production-ready cutting jobs
A printing die has to do more than cut a shape. It has to match the drawing, sit cleanly in the machine and keep the job moving after the first pull. Ikram Lazer handles drawing checks, laser-cut channels, steel rule bending and final inspection in one workflow.
Where this die fits
Carton, kraft, coated paper, label stock, corrugated board and industrial sheets all need different rule height and creasing decisions. The base, blade height and rubbering are selected for the material and machine.
For urgent Istanbul jobs, production can be planned the same day after file review. For shipping across Turkey, rule length, creasing lines and machine format are checked before dispatch.
- Carton and packaging cutting dies
- Label, sticker and kiss-cut work
- BOBST, platen and flatbed die-cutting machines
- Samples, short runs and repeat-order dies
What we check before production
The drawing is read as a production file, not just a shape. These checks help prevent delays on press.
- Separation of cut, crease and perforation lines
- Rule length, corner radius and bending risk
- Machine size, layout count and gripper margins
- Final visual check before packing
Quote information
A clear quote is easier when these details arrive together. A file is helpful, but a measured sample can also start the conversation.
- Product size or open drawing
- Material and board weight
- Machine type or working size
- Quantity, deadline and old die photo if available
