Abstract :
This document describes design and implementation of an automated environment for a rule cutting machine for the fabrication automation of rotary cutting dies for corrugated and cardboard boxes. The steps involved begin with the processing of the data obtained from the CAD program of die design. There is a brief mechanical report of the machine. The hardware, and software tools associated to its development, are explained, as it is the control program made with their help. Finally the improvements and advantages achieved with this project are summarized
