Kiss Cutting

Kiss cutting is a process (as shown in the opposite picture) where we cut a part on backing paper without actually cutting through the backing paper.

The Benefits of Kiss cut parts are:

  1. Easier to remove the part from the backing paper.
  2. Can be set with tracking holes in the backing paper to suit automated assembly.
  3. Can be supplied on rolls or strips to suit your manual assembly line.
  4. Parts can have an easy release backing paper so that the parts can be peeled off easier and thus quicken assembly.
  5. Depending on the thickness of the part we can supply the waste material removed at no extra cost.

The opposite picture shows one strip of parts with waste removed and one strip of parts without.
