  by a single knife cut to the release liner. CAVITY. (1) One section of a multiple cavity die, where more than one die or sections are mounted onto a back plate as in clicker dies or on a die board as in steel rule dies. (2) In laser technology, a cavity is the laser resonator, or tube in which the lasing...
• Quality, Value, Service Boost Die Maker
  Steady growth has been the story at Bestech Tool Corporation, a producer of metal stamping dies and tooling. Frank Fellenz and Michael Kornell bought a failing tool and die shop in 1993 and turned it into Bestech Tool. They moved into a brand-new facility in West Bend in 2000, and have continued...
