High-Performance Tooling

High-Performance Tooling built by BOBST Certified Die-Makers delivers up to 30% more output while improving quality and reducing waste.

Built for Maximum Performance and Profitability

The High-Performance Tooling (HPT) label stands for high quality and optimized machine performance. New standards for tool making have been set using BOBST’s knowledge of how to maximize the productivity of flatbed die-cutters, combined with our partner CITO’s long experience in manufacturing components dedicated to die-making and die-cutting.

Built by BOBST Certified Die-Makers who have been equipped and trained to deliver exceptional quality, HPT is available for all die-cutting processes: cutting, stripping, and blanking. In some cases, it can double machine performance while delivering quality improvements to finished blanks and boxes. The result: more boxes produced, less waste, and significant cost and time savings.

With more than 130 years of experience, our range of solutions covers all major cutting, stripping, and blanking operations. Our tooling can be changed quickly and easily to meet production needs, maximizing uptime and profitability.
