In the fashion industry, particularly in leather goods, shoe, and saddle factories, where leather is cut with a cutting die, it is important to keep the dies in order and preserve them properly, improving efficiency and ensuring high quality production.
Workshops are often full of sets of cutting dies hanging on the wall or stacked in cardboard boxes one above the other, making them difficult to find and easily damaged.
Managing cutting dies in the correct way is a challenge.
The solution is provided by the ABC cabinet, both horizontal and vertical, specially designed for cutting dies storage.
Archive cutting dies in an orderly manner with Horizontal Cabinets
Horizontal cabinets are the ideal solution for companies wishing to keep their dies well organised and easily accessible.
The range of horizontal cabinet is extensive and comes in different widths to suit every available space in the company.
The optimum position of the 18-drawer range, with a height of 100 cm, is next to the press machine.
During the cutting process, the operator finds the dies neatly arranged in the drawers of the cabinet and has a sturdy painted metal shelf.
On the other hand, the 27-drawer range, with a height of 140 cm, is designed to store a larger quantity of dies. The ideal position is in the storage department or leaning against the wall in the production department.
Dividing the cutting dies by series or size within the drawers, you reduce the time needed to find the right dies to use in processing, improving time and methods in production.
The drawers with height of 35 mm allow all dies to be kept on one level without them being damaged by overlapping with each other.
Quick Access and archive of bulky die with Vertical Cabinet
For companies with bulky dies to handle, such as those used in belt or saddlery, or companies that need to store a large quantity of dies, vertical cabinets offer an excellent storage solution.
These cabinets utilise height, allowing a large quantity of dies to be stored in the space of a Euro pallet.
The cutting dies are hung with hooks on the perforated panels in the drawers and are clearly visible and recognisable, minimising the time needed to find the die.
The possibility of dividing the dies by series or type within each drawer ensures optimal organisation.
The available models are designed to fit any type of cutting dies. The cabinet always has the same external dimensions, only the size and depth of the drawers change.
Advantages of optimised storage with Cabinet for Cutting Dies
The advantages of using horizontal and vertical cabinets in the department are:
- Maximising space: Horizontal and vertical cabinet make the most of available workshop space, reducing footprint and leaving more space for other equipment or operations.
- Improved time and methods: Keeping the dies tidy and easily accessible allows them to be found in a matter of moments, increasing overall productivity, and reducing operating costs.
- Extended cutting die life: Proper storage prevents damage to the dies due to accidental dropping or overlapping, thus extending their life, and ensuring consistent cutting results.
The effective archiving of cutting die can make the difference between efficient production and a slowed-down process. Investing in specially designed horizontal and vertical cabinet for die storage not only helps to maintain order in the workplace, but also optimises the available space in the department by improving time and methods in the company.
By choosing the storage solution best suited to their needs, companies in the fashion industry achieve higher quality results by preserving dies and improving departmental space.
