Rotary web finishing offers multiple advantages.

CCM (Catalyst Coated Membrane), component of MEAs (Membrane Electrode Assemblies), is quite a difficult and sensitive material to process, mainly when it comes to room temperature and humidity variations. However, rotary die cutting technology has proven its efficiency during the converting and processing, when integrated in fuel cell assembly lines. Other materials used are GDM (Gas Diffusion Layer) and PEM (Polymer Electrolyte Membrane).
