Four generations of die makers, one state-of-the-art facility. From specimen cutting dies to complex custom tooling, every die is engineered, cut, bent, and inspected under our own roof — and we've made over a million of them.
Full vertical integration means we control every step — design, cutting, bending, and inspection — so quality and lead times stay in our hands, not a vendor's.
Laser-cut die boards produce tight, repeatable kerfs for precise rule placement — the foundation of an accurate, long-lasting die.
Five computer-controlled bending stations form steel rule to exact profiles at speed, so complex geometries stay consistent from the first die to the hundredth.
CNC routing handles boards, bases, and tooling components to spec, keeping every part of the die dimensionally true.
A deep inventory of punches and steel rule blades on the shelf means most jobs start immediately — no waiting on material.
Since 1960, ACE has manufactured more than a million dies across specimen, gasket, medical, foam, and custom work. Experience that shows in every cut.
High-tolerance manufacturing with dimensional inspection and certificates of compliance available on request — built to support your quality system.
Email a drawing, CAD file, or standard. Unsure of details? We'll help define them.
Die boards are CNC-laser cut and routed to your geometry with tight tolerances.
Steel rule is automatically bent to profile and set into the board, then finished.
Each die is inspected, then shipped nationwide — fast turnaround from our shop floor.
