Abstract
A roller die cutting machine includes a base having a drive roller assembly generally centered thereon between opposing side edges. A first table is located between the drive roller assembly and the first side edge to support a die assembly, and a second table is supported on the base opposite the first table to support a die assembly. A crank is connected through a set of gears to the pressure roller to rotate the pressure roller and to draw a die assembly through the drive roller assembly, to thereby cut stock positioned on the die assembly. A cover on the drive roller assembly includes a pair of inwardly projecting lips which will contact the pressure roller and produce an audible sound as a consumer's hand approaches the cutting location of the pressure roller.
