Less Downtime
- Verify cut tests immediately.
- Change cut profile or pattern on the fly without stopping.
- No waiting on new dies, No sharpening, No die tooling storage.
- No wear on cutting tools – cut pattern and depth of cut stay consistent over time.
Increase Capability
- Easily cut small intricate sizes and shapes.
- No contact with material during cuts
- Easy slug removal setup
- Cut and seal in one pass
- Laser cutting compliments jobs that require tight tolerance cutting, registration, vision inspection and alignment.
Quicker Time to Market
- Upload a drawing to the HMI and start cutting.
- Product recipes and programs are easily saved and recalled.
- Multiple cuts can be overlaid to minimize amount of material removed during one cut pattern.
- The laser power, process speed, frequency and duty cycle are programmable, allowing the laser to be programmed to maximize speed and quality of cut.
Product Development
Our in-house laser testing lab gives you the ability to have your products tested on various types of laser cutting technologies. Our laser cutting experts will evaluate your materials and cutting requirements to determine which laser options will best fit your needs.

Laser Die Cutting Options
EDGE® Laser Converter
The Edge is the perfect solution for markets that demand flexibility. This offering combines our Crusader® rotary converting platform with an Edge laser module. The laser module is servo controlled and can be moved to various locations on the machine with the touch of a button. Need to run a conventional converting process? The edge laser can move up and out of the way giving your team access to 7 rotary stations, web path options are infinite.
Flex EDGE® Laser Converter
The Flex Edge is a flexible laser platform that can be used inline or offline with various configurations to allow for production and R&D use in both roll to roll and sheet-fed. This machine is completely portable. It can be bolted inline directly to an existing Delta ModTech machine, use its telescoping arm to connect to an open station on an existing converting line or run as a standalone unit.
EDGE® Custom – CO2, Fiber, UV/IR
If you want more, we can do it. We’ve delivered some of the most advanced laser converting systems in production today for the most demanding markets. Cutting, ablating, rejecting? Single, dual, even 18 lasers on a single system? It’s been done and we saw it to completion. No matter your requirements, we have a solution to manufacture your product and we aren’t done until you’re making good parts.
