<p>An apparatus for punching a foil (5) comprises a cutting die (1) having at least a cutting edge (4), and a punching die (6) which is adapted to be introduced partially into the cutting die (1) by a rectilinear movement between punching and cutting dies in order to cut the foil (5) in the form of the cutting edge(s) (4) of the cutting die (1). The part of the punching die (6) cooperating with the cutting die (1) consists of a substantially permanently deformable material. The invention further includes a method of punching a foil (5) by using this apparatus. A special application of said method is in the manufacture of a printed circuit on a carrier, wherein a foil (5) is cut in the form of the required circuit pattern, whereupon the cut foil parts (3) pressed into the cutting recesses in the cutting die (1) are urged out of the cutting die (1) and on to the carrier (15) to which they are fixed.</p> |
