Precision-Engineered Dies

Pioneer-Dietecs Metrology Lab features a state-of-the-art CNC computerized measuring machine (CMM) for die inspection and certification to produce precision dies that perform consistently. CMM checks tolerances to 0.0001″, the tightest in the die-cutting industry. Certification is per ANSI/NCSL Z540-1, and meets ISO 17025;2005 specifications. Pioneer certifies dies’ dimensional tolerances to 0.002″ and maintains a perpetual archive of each die’s history.
