摘要

A rotary cutting die includes a curved die board having one or more product ejector openings formed therein. A compressible product ejector is disposed in the product ejector opening for engaging a die cut product and assisting in the separation of the die cut product from the rotary cutting die. Adjacent the product ejector opening is a cutting or scoring rule for cutting or scoring corrugated board. A reinforcement member is embedded into the die board between the product ejector opening and the cutting or scoring rule. The reinforcement member reinforces the cutting or scoring rule, as well as the die board adjacent the reinforcement member.
