The principle of a die-cutting machine is to use die-cutting knives, steel knives, hardware molds, and steel wires (or templates hand-carved from thick steel plates), and release the necessary working pressure by pressing the printing plate to roll and cut printed matter or cardboard into the desired shape. If all printed materials are pressed and cut into individual patterned products, it is called die-cutting. If a wire is used to press a mark or leave a curved groove mark on a printed matter, it is called an indentation. If two positive and negative templates are used, and the mold is heated to a certain temperature to heat print a pattern or font style with a three-dimensional effect on the surface of the printed matter, it is called hot stamping. If this kind of board is compounded onto another kind of board, it is called pandering. The removal of any part other than the genuine product is called waste removal. Both sides can be collectively referred to as die-cutting technology.
