Rotoflex Tooling manufactures magnetic cylinders in Canada

Rotoflex Tooling, a division of Rotoflex International, now manufactures magnetic cylinders in Canada. ‘With the increased demand for flexible dies, our customers need the shortest possible lead times,’ said Earl Warren, GM.  ‘Companies just can't wait weeks for a magnetic cylinder – they need it yesterday. We now manufacture the magnetic cylinders in Canada – resulting in faster service, reduced downtime, and better value,’

‘Magnetic cylinders fit easily into existing die stations – providing a cost-effective alternative to solid die replacement,’ continued Warren. ‘Using strong magnets that are strategically placed around the circumference of the cylinder, a flexible magnetic die, or plate, can be used to die cut various substrates. This technique saves not just set-up time, but also saves money as a flexible plate is less expensive than a solid rotary die and can be produced quickly.’
