How Pull Tabs Reduce Installation Costs

Pull tabs speed the installation of die cut parts. They reduce installation costs, but the benefits don’t end there. Pull tabs or extended liners protect die cut parts, make smaller parts easier-to-handle, and support the use of gloves.

Laminating Metal Foils to High-Temperature Insulation

Metal foils that are laminated to high-temperature insulation can increase the effectiveness of die cut heat shielding. Aluminum foils reflect radiant energy and reduce the amount of heat that high-temperature insulation must absorb. Metal foils also support micro-perforating and embossing (kalotte)

Large Parts Die Cutting

Large parts die cutting produces bigger, stronger parts that look better, last longer, and take less time to assemble. Examples of these die cut products include car door vapor barriers, hood liners, head liners, heat shielding, point-of-purchase (POP) displays, and large format graphics.

Micro-Perforating for Sound Absorption in Automotive Heat Shielding

Micro-perforating for sound absorption in automotive heat shielding provides a complete heat management and NVH solution. JBC offers a portfolio of aluminum foil products with or without heat-activated adhesive systems. We also laminate aluminum foil into multi-layer, sandwich-style constructions.

Embossing (Kalotte) for Automotive Heat Shields: Value-Added Die Cutting

Find out why automotive heat shield designers choose embossed, die cut aluminum over other alternatives and how JBC Technologies can help.

Platinum-Cured Silicone Gaskets for Medical Devices

Platinum-cured silicone gaskets are used in medical devices that require ultra-pure, ultra-clean materials. JBC can die cut platinum-cured silicones for medical wearables and wired or wireless devices where a die cut silicone gasket may touch human skin or require repeated sterilization.
