arrows

We cut gaskets and technical components from plastics, rubber and sealing materials on CNC plotters with an oscillating knife. The cutting path is prepared in a CAD/CAM system, and the knife introduces no heat into the material.

We use KIMLA cutting and milling plotters with working areas of 3100 x 1700 x 350 mm in the four-axis version, 3100 x 1700 x 300 mm and 2100 x 1500 x 200 mm. The oscillating knife limits heat input when cutting rubber, silicone and heat-sensitive plastics. Aluminium is machined with a milling head.

We stock sealing materials from DONIT TESNIT, GAMBIT and KLINGER. We complete orders using our own or free-issue materials, based on customer documentation or documentation prepared by our Technical Department. ISO 9001:2015 certification confirms the quality of our processes.

Oscillating knife cutting services - CNC machine specifications and capabilities

Our KIMLA cutting and milling plotters provide precision CNC cutting of technical components and gaskets:

  • KIMLA plotter, 3100 x 1700 x 350 mm – a four-axis version intended for large parts and for nesting multiple components on a single sheet, helping to make better use of material.
  • Precision plotter, 2100×1500×200 mm – for small-format parts and fine details that require high accuracy.
  • Oscillating knife – cutting without heat input into the material. The need for additional finishing depends on the material type and thickness and the required edge quality.
  • 3D cutting – the ability to cut three-dimensional and multilayer parts.
  • Maximum cutting thickness depends on the material type, its properties and the required edge quality. We select the blade and operating parameters for each order.
  • Computer control makes it possible to cut complex shapes while maintaining repeatable dimensions and edge quality throughout the production run.

Materials for CNC cutting

We cut components from a broad range of technical materials:

  • PTFE cutting – precision cutting of polytetrafluoroethylene using techniques that prevent material deformation. Clean edges and dimensional accuracy for chemical and pharmaceutical applications.
  • Engineering plastics – machining polyamides, acetals and technical plastics with cutting parameters optimised for each polymer type and application requirement.
  • Rubber cutting (CR, SBR, NBR and EPDM, including reinforced grades) – cutting gaskets and rubber components with the appropriate blade and speed to prevent stretching and maintain dimensional stability.
  • Thermal insulation materials – cutting cardboard, paper and ceramic boards for high-temperature applications using controlled parameters that preserve material integrity and insulation properties.
  • Cutting silicone and fluoroelastomers (Viton fluoroelastomers, FPM and FKM) – precision processing of silicone, Viton and FKM materials for demanding sealing applications requiring chemical and temperature resistance.

We help select the material for the component design, temperature, medium and other operating conditions.

Industry applications

Our CNC gasket cutting services support sealing applications in the food industry, using materials approved for food contact and precision CNC plotter cutting for hygienic solutions. We maintain compliance with regulatory requirements while achieving effective sealing in demanding processing environments.

Petrochemical applications require chemically resistant materials and precision cutting capabilities for pump seals, valve gaskets and heat exchanger components. We produce sealing solutions for aggressive chemical environments with changing temperatures and contact with corrosive media.

For the energy sector, including renewable energy installations, we cut sealing components from materials selected for the operating conditions. We consider temperature, process medium and required component life, among other factors.

Shipbuilding and marine applications use our large-format cutting capabilities on a KIMLA 3100×1700 mm plotter and marine-grade materials for structural sealing components. Our solutions provide weather resistance and dimensional stability in marine environments involving seawater and thermal cycling.

Sealing solutions

We cut gaskets for pump applications across all industrial sectors. Precision CNC-cut gaskets provide sealing performance for different flange configurations and pressure ranges when the correct material is selected.

Valve seals include seats, gland packings and body gaskets made from materials selected for the process medium and temperature range. Precision CNC cutting provides the correct fit and effective sealing.

Heat exchanger gaskets require materials that withstand cyclical temperature changes and maintain sealing performance under thermal conditions. Our material knowledge and cutting precision support the selection of a suitable solution.

Flange gaskets for piping systems require dimensional accuracy and consistent material properties across large production runs. Efficient cutting processes and quality control maintain consistency between batches.

For custom sealing solutions, we use our material knowledge and cutting flexibility to complete unusual orders requiring non-standard shapes, materials or parameters.

When selecting a solution, we consider material properties, the process medium, temperature, pressure and seal geometry.

CNC cutting technology

Selecting the blade geometry for the material extends tool life and improves cut edge quality. We use different oscillating knives for rubber, PTFE and thermal insulation materials.

We prepare cutting layouts in SigmaNest, which nests components on the sheet to reduce material waste.

What is CNC cutting?

CNC (Computer Numerical Control) is a machining method based on computer-controlled machines. In CNC cutting, a plotter with an oscillating knife cuts the material along a programmed path, maintaining precision and smooth edges. CNC cutting differs from conventional sawing methods because it provides better results and repeatability. The cut must first be designed in CAD/CAM software, after which the machine processes the material precisely to the project requirements. Once the program has been prepared, the machine follows the planned path automatically under operator supervision and in accordance with the process procedure.

Advantages of CNC cutting

  • Cutting precision and quality – CNC control makes it easier to produce complex shapes to the accuracy specified in the documentation and reduces the effect of manual tool guidance.
  • Cutting process repeatability – the parameters of successive parts are maintained within the agreed tolerance, including in production runs.
  • Reduced waste – the precision of CNC cutting allows the process to be planned to minimise material waste.
  • Smooth cut surface – the need for additional finishing depends on the material, thickness and required edge quality.
  • No heat-affected zone – an oscillating knife does not heat the material, which is particularly important when cutting rubber, silicone and heat-sensitive plastics.

The CNC cutting process in 3 stages

The standard process for producing a part on a CNC plotter consists of 3 stages:

  1. Computer-aided design stage – preparation of a technical drawing in CAD format, taking account of tolerances and material requirements.
  2. Converting the design into a machine control plan – CAM – programming cutting paths in the CAM system and optimising the arrangement of parts on the sheet.
  3. Production stage – CNC – the KIMLA plotter with an oscillating knife cuts along the programmed path.

How much does CNC cutting cost?

The price of CNC cutting depends on several factors: the material type, sheet thickness, shape complexity, production quantity and tolerance requirements. For machining on computer numerically controlled equipment – CNC – CAD/CAM programming time and the utilisation of the material sheet are also important.

The cost of CNC cutting is affected by the material price (PTFE, NBR/EPDM rubber, silicone and Viton have different prices), plotter time, shape complexity (simple flange gaskets versus complex geometries), quantity (production runs reduce the unit cost because programming is completed once) and quality requirements (documentation and inspection reports).

Send us a technical drawing or CAD file and we will prepare a quotation. We primarily make prototypes for projects that lead to series production. Every order is completed on the basis of documentation supplied by the customer or prepared by our Technical Department.

Frequently asked questions about CNC cutting

Die cutting requires a cutting die, which is a steel tool matched to the shape of the part. It is cost-effective for very large runs of identical parts. CNC profile cutting on a plotter does not require a die. The shape is programmed in CAD/CAM and can be changed at any time without the cost of a new tool. CNC is therefore better suited to prototypes, small batches and changing geometries.

An oscillating knife is a blade fitted to the head of a CNC plotter that moves rapidly up and down while cutting. Unlike a laser, it does not heat the material, so the cut edge remains smooth, with no melting or change in properties. We use oscillating knives on KIMLA plotters to cut rubber, PTFE, plastics, silicone and thermal insulation materials.

Yes. We use CNC plotters with an oscillating knife to cut CR, SBR, NBR and EPDM rubber, including reinforced grades. Selecting the appropriate blade and cutting speed prevents the material from stretching. Rubber requires a different approach from rigid plastics, so we use dedicated knives and parameters matched to the hardness and thickness of the particular rubber compound.

Yes. We cut PTFE on a CNC plotter with an oscillating knife. PTFE is soft and susceptible to deformation, so it requires suitable support and sharp knives to achieve a clean, dimensionally accurate edge. Oscillating knife cutting does not alter the chemical properties of PTFE, which is important in pharmaceutical and chemical applications.

Yes. We cut silicone on a CNC plotter with an oscillating knife. Silicone is flexible and can deform during cutting, so we use suitable speed and pressure settings. Oscillating knife cutting does not heat the silicone, preserving its temperature properties and flexibility. We also cut Viton FPM and FKM.

The achievable tolerance depends on the material grade and thickness, geometry, clamping method and project requirements. PTFE is soft and susceptible to deformation, so it should not be treated like a rigid material. We confirm the specific tolerance during quotation from the technical drawing.

CNC cutting on a plotter with an oscillating knife has limitations. Maximum material thickness depends on its properties, it is not suitable for cutting hard metals, for which CNC milling or laser/plasma cutting is used, and die cutting may be faster for very large runs of identical parts. For changing geometries, small batches and heat-sensitive materials, however, a CNC plotter is an effective choice.

The choice of technology depends on the material, thickness and required edge quality. An oscillating knife cuts without heat input and works well for rubber, silicone, PTFE, plastics and thermal insulation materials. Laser and waterjet cutting cover different applications, so the method is selected for the specific component, cost and required accuracy.
