Hi-Tech Products Die Cutting and Converting
Rotary Die Cutting
Hi-Tech Products is a precision rotary die cutting manufacturer serving medical, electronic, aerospace, and industrial customers nationwide. With more than 30 rotary die cutting presses — including 8 state-of-the-art servo presses handling widths up to 24″ — we deliver high-volume, high-precision die cut parts from certified cleanrooms in the U.S. and Mexico. As a 3M Preferred Converter and FDA-registered, ISO 13485:2016 and ISO 9001:2015 certified manufacturer, we combine engineering expertise with the material access to support even the most demanding die cutting projects.
Rotary die cutting is a high-speed converting process that uses cylindrical dies to cut, laminate, and shape flexible materials as they pass continuously through a press. It’s the preferred method for high-volume production runs that require tight tolerances, repeatable accuracy, and inline finishing — making it ideal for adhesive components, medical device parts, gaskets, labels, and electronic assemblies.
Our die cutting services go beyond basic cutting. Every process below can be performed in certified cleanrooms, often combined inline on the same press pass.
We laminate pre-cut adhesive shapes onto material during the die cutting process, positioning adhesive only where it’s needed. Adhesive free substrates can also be island placed. Optical sensors control registration within tight tolerances, minimizing scrap and enabling registration to preprinted substrates. Hi-Tech has many state-of-the-art servo rotary presses capable of this process in certified cleanrooms.
Parts can be packaged inline as they’re die cut, with pre-printed heat seal or cold seal pouching. Pouch materials include foil, film, paper, and Tyvek.
We offer inline flexographic printing across our U.S. and Mexico presses, including preprinted release liners, direct printing onto die cut parts with electronic registration, and zone or flood coating of specialty coatings.
Our rotary die cutting presses laminate flexible substrates together using heat or PSA — without entrapping air or contaminants and not stretching the substrate. — supporting up to 12 layers across single or multi-station configurations.
Hi-Tech is capable of designing and building one-of-a-kind presses if needed to meet your unique requirements and applications.
Our rotary die cutting manufacturing supports critical applications across:
Choosing the right die cutting process and manufacturing partner directly affects product quality and cost. Hi-Tech Products evaluates each project to apply the most efficient converting approach, backed by:
Whether your project requires rotary die cutting, flatbed die cutting, or precision laser cutting, our full range of converting capabilities is available under one roof — all performed in certified cleanroom environments.

What materials can be rotary die cut?
Hi-Tech Products die cuts a wide range of flexible materials, including adhesive-backed films, foams, foils, Tyvek, paper, and laminated substrates. As a 3M Preferred Converter, we also have direct access to specialty adhesive and material lines for applications with specific performance requirements.
Can rotary die cutting be done in a cleanroom?
Yes. All of our die cutting capabilities — including island placement, lamination, and pouching — can be performed in certified cleanrooms, making the process suitable for medical device and diagnostic applications.
What size parts can your rotary presses handle?
Our servo rotary presses handle material widths up to 24 inches, with up to 14 stations for multi-step inline processing such as laminating, die cutting, printing, and pouching in a single pass.
Do you build custom die cutting presses?
Yes. When a project requires equipment beyond standard configurations, Hi-Tech Products designs and builds custom, one-of-a-kind rotary presses engineered to the application’s specific requirements.
