About Converting Services
Converting services cut, join, finish, package and assemble units of material into more usable shapes and sizes. For example, converting services that work with textile manufacturers cut large rolls of fabric into smaller webs or individual sheets. Converting services handle a variety of materials, ranging from ceramics and glass to laminates and composites. Some companies specialize in working with foam and porous materials, while others handle metal, paper and paperboard, rubber and elastomer, stone and masonry, or wood and natural fibers. Converting services are located throughout the world and vary in terms of capabilities. Selecting converting services requires an analysis of several factors, including the range of widths, thicknesses, and outer diameters that are needed.
Coating, heat sealing, and laminating are processes that converting services perform to join materials together. Coating applies a thin, protective layer of material or film. Heat sealing joins two or more thermoplastic films or sheets by heating areas in contact with each other to the temperature at which fusion occurs, usually aided by pressure. Laminating uses pressure-sensitive adhesive products to join two or more layers of foam, film, paper, or foil. To cut materials, converting services use processes that include water jets, pressure, hot wires, and lasers. Die cutting produces loose pieces, cut to a variety of shapes and sizes, using steel rule and rotary dies. Sheeting reduces stock size from continuous rolls to individual sheets. For materials with both adhesive and non-adhesive backings, slitting to width is also available.
