Abstract
The invention provides a method of shaping optical storage devices (OSD) by placing an OSD between a die set having a male die and female die corresponding to a desired shape and advancing and retracting the die set so as to die-cut the OSD to the desired shape to form a shaped OSD, the shaped OSD products formed therefrom and the die set.
Claims16
1) A method of shaping optical storage devices (OSD) comprising placing an OSD between a die set having a male die and female die corresponding to a desired shape and advancing and retracting the die set so as to die-cut the OSD to the desired shape to form a shaped OSD.
15) A die set for shaping optical storage devices comprising:
- a male die having a flat upper surface corresponding to a desired shape;
- and
- a corresponding female die having a tolerance with the male die of 1-10 thousandths of an inch, the female die having a three dimensional cutting surface adapted for advancement with respect to the male die from one or more first contact points defined as the point of first overlap between the male and female die.
