CUTTING VERY INTRICATE DIES
Very intricate dies, may by the very nature of their design, require the addition of the
metal cutting plate into the sandwich to improve cutting performance and may also
require being passed through the machine two or three times. This is not related to
how much "pressure" is applied to the die in cutting, but by the detail in the design of
the die you are cutting.
Recommended Combination: Clear Cutting Plate on the bottom, then the Plastic
Shim, Magnetic Shim, Die, Material to be cut, Metal Cutting Plate, and Clear Cutting
Plate on top.
