We provide a proto-type service with samples produced from technical drawings.
Rotary dies of 250mm , flat-bed at 400mm x 400mm laser at 900mm x 1000mm and CNC up to 1500mm wide.
Spooling
Cross – wound spools are produced on 6 inch cores, spooling double-sided foam film and tissue tapes, from widths of 6mm to 25mm. The length of spools is dependent on the thickness and width of the tape, spools are supplied up to 1500 meters in length.
Acrylic foam spools are supplied with a secondary extended liner to enable cross-winding, separating each wrap and preventing the foam layers bonding to one another.
Spools are supplied in specially designed cartons with interlocking flaps to keep the spools in position.
Spools can be supplied with cardboard flanges to prevent slippage of the wraps of tape.
Plotter/Laser Die Cutting
For development projects or prototypes samples, Hi-Bond has both a high grade laser cutter and flat bed plotters to allow customers to get samples quickly to aid in their development projects. This can easily be scaled up on successful projects to high volume rotary or flat-bed die cutting for smaller batch production.
