Below are the materials that can be cut with our automatic gasket cutters:
Compressed Fibers – Compressed fibers can be cut using our CNC gasket cutters.
A variety of materials, including asbestos-free, PTFE-filled, fiberglass and Kevlar/Nitrile materials in sheet and roll form, can be placed on the bed table for cutting.
Rubber – Our automatic gasket cutters can cut rubber up to 1 inch (25 mm) thick.
Examples of soft rubber and semi-ridged rubber materials are neoprene, silicone rubber, rubber, butyl rubber, nitrile rubber, polyurethane, and diaphragm.
The machine can cut precise gaskets from these materials.
Foam and Sponge – Our CNC gasket cutters can cut foam or sponge up to 50mm thick and are best suited for flexible cutting. Semi-rigid foam or sponge.
Examples of closed cell sponge materials include neoprene, EPDM, PVC, polyester polyurethane, vinyl nitrile, nitrile rubber, silicone, epichlorohydrin, polyurethane, ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA), and natural open cell sponges.
Foam materials include crushed cell foam, cross-linked polyethylene foam, open cell polyurethane foam, and open cell polyurethane foam.
Plastic - Our gasket making machines can cut molded material or plastic material. The hardness and thickness of the plastic will affect the depth of the cut.
Cuts materials such as nylon, acetal, carbon fiber, polycarbonate, PTFE, acrylic, vinyl, and plastic laminates.
Cutting Felt and Fibers – Yes, felt and other fibrous materials can be cut with our gasket production machines.
Fibrous materials include high temperature ceramic fiber mats, ceramic papers, vegetable fibers and NBR carbon fiber sheets, which can be cut using a CNC operated shim cutter.
