LARGE-FORMAT AUTOMATIC DIE CUTTING
D1500Y Fully Automatic Lead Edge Feeding Flatbed Die-Cutting Machine
Large-format automatic die cutting for corrugated board and paperboard up to 1,500 × 1,100 mm, engineered for controlled sheet feeding, accurate registration, heavy-duty flatbed processing, and stable automatic delivery.
For white board from 250 g/m² and corrugated board up to 9 mm thick.
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Built for Large-Format Corrugated and Paperboard Converting
The D1500Y is designed for packaging converters that need to die cut large corrugated or heavy paperboard sheets with automatic feeding and delivery. It combines a 1,500 × 1,100 mm maximum sheet format with a rigid flatbed structure, controlled sheet transport, accurate registration, and a 1,200 mm delivery pile capacity.
Its lead edge feeding system is especially suited to corrugated sheets and printed or laminated board that require stable entry and careful surface handling. From feeding and positioning to die cutting and delivery, the machine creates an integrated production sequence that reduces manual sheet handling and supports repeatable output.
The D1500Y is suitable for manufacturers producing large-format packaging where sheet size, board thickness, registration stability, and dependable production are more important than decorative automation claims.

CONTROLLED SHEET ENTRY
Lead Edge Feeding for Stable Corrugated Board Handling
The D1500Y uses a lead edge feeding system to introduce large sheets into the transport section in a controlled and repeatable manner. This feeding method is suited to corrugated board and other rigid sheet materials that require stable support at the point of entry.
Food-grade 304 stainless steel is used in the paper-contact area. The pressure-free, scratch-resistant design helps reduce unwanted marking on the reverse side of the sheet, particularly when processing laminated or color-printed board.
Controlled Sheet Entry
The lead edge system supports consistent sheet introduction and helps reduce irregular movement before registration.
304 Stainless-Steel Contact Area
The documented paper-contact area uses food-grade 304 stainless steel for clean and durable sheet handling.
Reduced Surface Marking
The pressure-free contact design is intended to minimize scratches and pressure marks on printed and laminated board.
Corrugated Board Compatibility
The feeding structure supports corrugated board up to 9 mm thick within the specified operating range.
CONVEYING AND REGISTRATION
Stable Sheet Conveying and Accurate Registration
After entering the machine, each sheet moves through the conveying and registration system before the die-cutting cycle begins. The front and side positioning elements establish the sheet position, while the gripper and intermittent transport mechanism coordinate movement through the working sections.
Accurate registration depends on the complete relationship between feeding stability, front-edge positioning, side alignment, gripper condition, sheet flatness, and correct machine setup. The D1500Y is specified for die-cutting accuracy of ±0.25 mm under suitable operating conditions.
Front Lay Positioning
The front lay establishes the leading-edge position of the sheet before it enters the die-cutting cycle.
Side Lay Alignment
The side lay corrects lateral sheet position to support repeatable alignment from sheet to sheet.
Intermittent Sheet Transfer
The intermittent mechanism coordinates feeding, positioning, die cutting, and delivery as one synchronized production sequence.
Gripper-Based Conveying
The gripper bar carries the registered sheet through the working cycle and supports stable transfer between sections.
DIE CUTTING AND DRIVE
Rigid Flatbed Die Cutting with Heavy-Duty Drive Components
The D1500Y provides a maximum die-cutting area of 1,490 × 1,090 mm and maximum working pressure of 300 t. Its flatbed structure is designed to distribute working load through a rigid machine body while the intermittent drive coordinates each feeding, cutting, and delivery cycle.
The machine body is manufactured from QT600-3 ductile iron and is intended to maintain structural stability during repeated industrial production. The drive, platen, die frame, lubrication, and safety systems work together as one mechanical platform rather than as isolated components.
300-Ton Working Pressure
The platen system provides the working force required for large-format corrugated and paperboard die-cutting applications within the specified material range.
QT600-3 Ductile-Iron Body
The documented QT600-3 machine body provides a rigid structural foundation for the die-cutting and conveying systems.
Intermittent Drive Control
The intermittent mechanism controls the start-and-stop movement required to position each sheet for the die-cutting cycle.
Forced Lubrication Protection
The forced lubrication system supplies the principal transmission points and supports protective shutdown when adequate lubrication is not available.
Efficient Die Frame Handling
The documented high-strength die frame and pneumatic plate-changing arrangement are designed to support efficient tooling preparation and replacement.
ELECTRICAL CONTROL
Centralized Control and Machine Protection
The D1500Y uses a PLC-based electrical control system with a documented 15-inch operating interface. The centralized control arrangement allows the operator to manage production settings, review machine status, and coordinate the principal feeding, die-cutting, and delivery functions.
Photoelectric devices, limit switches, encoder feedback, lubrication monitoring, and safety sensing support controlled operation. Final component brands and models are confirmed in the contracted machine configuration.
PLC-Based Control
The programmable control system coordinates the machine sequence and the principal operating functions.
15-Inch Operating Interface
The operating interface provides a centralized location for production settings, status information, and fault inspection.
Position and Sheet Monitoring
Photoelectric devices, limit switches, and encoder feedback monitor relevant machine and sheet positions during operation.
Safety and Lubrication Interlocks
Infrared sensing and lubrication-related protection support safer operation when used together with the machine guards and correct operating procedures.
AUTOMATIC DELIVERY
Automatic Delivery for Ordered Pile Formation
After die cutting, the finished sheets are transferred to the automatic delivery section for collection and pile formation. The D1500Y supports a maximum delivery pile height of 1,200 mm, helping reduce frequent manual interruption during production.
The documented delivery arrangement includes automatic metering, side alignment, and sampling functions. These features help operators monitor output and maintain an orderly delivery pile while the machine is running under suitable production conditions.
1,200 mm Delivery Pile
The delivery section accommodates a finished-sheet pile height of up to 1,200 mm.
Automatic Metering
The collection sequence supports controlled counting and batch management according to the configured operating process.
Side Alignment
The side collection function helps maintain a more orderly pile as finished sheets enter the delivery section.
Production Sampling
The documented sampling function allows die-cutting results to be checked during production according to the applicable operating procedure.
