Why Vibrating-Blade Outperforms Standard Cutting

Conventional rotary or die-cut methods compress foam cells during the cut, leaving a deformed edge that reduces vacuum seal quality. Our vibrating-blade system oscillates at high frequency — slicing through foam fibres rather than crushing them. The result: a perfectly flat, undamaged cut face that seats flush against the vacuum pod body.
