How material moves through the plant

Incoming

Batch, width, liner and visual checks against the purchase specification.

Converting

Slitting, lamination, die-cutting or laser cutting on the route selected at DFM review.

Inspection

Dimensional and visual checks, with a first-article report for new parts.

Packing

Roll, sheet, pad or kit format, labelled for export and batch traceability.

Photographs are taken at the Bao'an, Shenzhen plant. Equipment is scheduled by material and part, so the line you see during a visit depends on the running order.

Machine routes

Which machine route a part goes through

The same drawing can be produced four different ways. The route is chosen at review because it decides tolerance source, tooling cost and how a repeat order behaves.

Equipment counts on this page describe the Bao’an plant in Shenzhen: eight slitting lines, six rewinding lines, four die-cutting lines, two CNC units, two laser cutters and two tensile testers. Capacity for one specific material or part is confirmed at quotation, because the constraint is usually changeover and tooling rather than headline machine count.

RouteTypical outputWhat has to be fixed before it runsWhere tolerance comes from
SlittingNarrow rolls to your width from a jumbo rollWidth, core, unwind direction, splice rulesThe slit station and the web guide
RewindingRolls rebuilt to tension and lengthTension profile, core, roll hardnessThe rewinder setup and the roll build
LaminationA construction no single grade providesLayer order, which face is adhesive, liner survivalThe coating or laminating material itself
Flat-bed die-cuttingParts cut from sheet or roll stockDrawing, tolerance source, tooling type, presentationThe die and the press registration
Rotary die-cuttingHigher-volume parts with consistent edgesDie cylinder, web feed, kiss-cut depthThe rotary tool and the feed control
CNC cuttingThicker or rigid parts, lower volumesFixture, cut path, kerf allowanceThe machine path rather than a die
Laser cuttingPrototypes and intricate shapes without hard toolingFile, material suitability, heat effect at the edgeThe digital file, so the same file must be used for repeats

What a plant visit is arranged around

The running order

The line you see depends on what is scheduled that day, so tell us which process matters to you and we will try to have it running.

The parts to compare

Samples or first articles of your own material, side by side with the route you are evaluating, are more useful than a general tour.

The technical staff

Converting and quality people attend when the conversation is about tolerance, inspection and the batch record, which is when those questions get answered properly.

The audit pack

For a formal audit, quality and material documents can be prepared before you travel so the visit is spent on the floor rather than on paperwork.

FAQ

Factory questions buyers actually ask

Can you take the order if your lines are full?
Sometimes the honest answer is a date rather than a yes. Capacity is confirmed at quotation for the material and format requested, and an order that has to wait is stated as waiting instead of being accepted and then slipping.
Do you run toll converting on customer material?
Yes. The report then describes what your material did, because incoming variation is outside our control. Incoming checks still apply, and the findings are recorded rather than absorbed.
Which line runs my part?
Depends on format: a slit roll is a slitting and rewinding job, a die-cut pad is a die-cutting or laser job, and a laminate is built before it is cut. The route is named on the quotation so a repeat order goes back to the same setup.
Can we witness the first-off check?
Yes, on site by appointment or by report. A first-article inspection is normally documented whether or not anyone attends, and the measured record is what the approval rests on.
Do you handle medical-grade work in a clean room?
Medical and IVD parts are converted with documented handling, clean die-cutting and batch records; this page does not claim a clean-room classification. If your project needs a specific environment, name the requirement at enquiry so we can say what the plant can actually offer.
Where do the photographs come from?
They are taken in the Bao’an plant. Where an image is a reference illustration rather than a photograph of our equipment or material, it is labelled as one.
