A Heritage of Rotary Expertise

Have you taken advantage of the extensive experience and customer-oriented expertise of GEC's rotary team? Did you even know they HAVE expertise in rotary cutting?

GEC has had rotary cutting capabilities since the mid-1990s. Rotary cutting is typically used for high-speed, high volume, multi layered projects that require anywhere from 2 to 7 substrates to be joined to form a part. Typically one of those substrates is an adhesive, and the other material could be anything-copper, plastic, PET for lenses or shields, breathable venting material, or silicones or other sponges. Our rotary cutting customers come to us because we are able to work with more substrates than a typical rotary cutting converter supplier. As a preferred partner for great material providers like 3M®, Rogers®, BISCO® and PORON®, we are able to put many different materials

through our rotary cutting machines. … Find out more by visiting the rotary section of our website →

Complex Rotary Cutting to Fuse Five Layers Into One

Scientific and medical lab equipment can be very complex so when one of GEC's clients needed to make a multilayered solution cup vent for one of its clients, Gasket Engineering's rotary cutting equipment allowed them to create a five-layered film that had a support layer, the vent membrane and a pressure sensitive adhesive bonded to aluminum all adhered to an easy to handle release liner.
