Wilson Manufacturing is a rotary tooling supplier located in St. Louis MO. We have been supplying the
flexography industry since 1979 and we recently expanded into the Gasket Fabricators Association. Wilson
is not your typical die maker, we produce machine sharpened dies for tight tolerance and critical die cutting.
Standard dies
used in our industry are manually hand sharpen and this produces inconsistencies. Machine
sharpening produces a precise, constant dead sharp blade along every inch of the die, unlike handsharpened
dies where sharpness depends on the human
sharpener, intricacy of pattern and number of times the die has been sharpened.
