Blanking station. Less manual work. Higher productivity. Better safety. A blanking station is an important feature that automatically separates the die-cut products (such as cardboard or paperboard blanks) from the waste, creating a clean, efficient process for high-volume production. The addition of blanking stations to die-cutting machines is part of a broader industry trend towards automation and streamlining workflows, reducing manual labour, and improving overall production efficiency. By integrating blanking stations, Bobst is meeting the growing demand for more automated, faster, and efficient solutions, especially in industries like packaging and printing where time and precision are crucial. This also reflects the increasing focus on reducing material waste, enhancing productivity, and lowering costs for manufacturers, all of which are key competitive advantages in the market. The move to sell more machines with blanking stations aligns with the industry’s broader push towards automation and smart manufacturing solutions. It helps companies save time, reduce human error, and enhance overall efficiency, while also improving safety on the production floor. Key benefits – Blanking station on die-cutting machines: Automatic separation of finished blanks from waste Cleaner and more organized delivery, ideal for high-volume production Reduced manual handling on the production line Improved overall production efficiency Faster production cycles with consistent precision Reduced human error Lower material waste Increased productivity Reduced operating costs Improved operator safety Aligned with automated and smart manufacturing processes
