Die-cut details in soft materials
We help industry convert films, foams, rubbers and tapes/laminates into finished, ready-to-assemble parts. Our focus is on electronics-related insulation, gaskets and thermal interfaces (TIM) - but we are equally happy to supply other applications where lightweight, flexible materials are needed.
Why Stans-Service?
- Specialising in soft materials - optimised process for films, foam/rubber and self-adhesive laminates.
- The right detail in the right format - delivery on roll/sheet (kiss-cut) or singulated (punched) for quick installation in your rope.
- Fast track from idea to volume - in-house tool making, test runs and stable series production.
Capacities & delivery formats
- Detail size: from very small insulation parts to large gaskets for enclosures.
- Delivery:
- Kiss-cut on carriers (sheet/roll) for high speed assembly.
- Recast and singulated details when it fits your process better.
- Labelling & kitting: batches, item labelling and item/batch ID according to your flow.
Processes we use
Through-cutting (through-cut)
For loose details where you want each component singulated directly.
Kiss-cut (top punching)
When details need to remain on the carrier liner (paper/plastic) for quick picking in production. Ideal for self-adhesive foils, tapes and thermal pads.
Which method should I choose?
- Kiss-cut when you want to minimise handling time and get repeatable placement in assembly.
- Reassessment when the part is to be further processed as a single component or where subsequent process steps require singulates.
Materials & multi-layer details
- Plastic films/foils: e.g. PET, PI (Kapton), PC, PTFE - for electrical/thermal insulation.
- Foam & rubber: EPDM, silicone, NBR, etc. - vibration damping, sealing and spacer.
- Tapes & laminates: acrylic/VHB, transfer and carrier film - as an assembly aid or to build multilayers.
- TIM: gap pads/fillers and thermal films for efficient heat transfer.
Do you need a specific material? We suggest alternatives and can stock them by appointment.
Quality & documentation
- Manufacturing customisation (DFM): material and process choices for lower total cost of ownership.
- Precursors: test drive and measurement - measurement protocol if necessary.
- Consistent quality in series: tool maintenance and traceability as agreed.
Logistics that simplify your assembly
- Roll/sheet/singulated - format according to your installation method.
- Kitting & labelling - rates per product/item, clear labelling.
- Call-offs & safety stock - a steady pace and short lead times.
Typical use cases
- Gaskets & seals for enclosures (IP protection, dust/liquid).
- Thermal management - thermally conductive gap pads and foils in electronics.
- Masking for paints/surfacing - heat-resistant films with fast peeling.
- Vibration damping & spacers - foam details with/without PSA.
- EMI/EMC - shielding foils and self-adhesive screens.
How we work - from drawing to series
- Letter & CAD - drawing/CAD + volumes and critical dimensions/tolerances.
- Material selection & prototype - quick tests for function and assembly.
- Tools & pre-series - test runs, fine-tuning and documentation.
- Series production - the right process (punching/kiss-cut) and optimised cycle time.
- Packaging & Logistics - format, labelling and call-off as planned.
- Ongoing optimisation - reduced waste, stable quality, secured supply.
