Universal Plate System FAQ's:

Why did Spellbinders Create ANOTHER Plate system? 

  1. Increase Compatibility – With an influx of embossing folders into the marketplace of various thicknesses, we wanted to maximize your creative power with increased compatibility
  2. Bigger Size - Cardmaking and creativity are trending with larger sizes such as slimline (A10) dies and our larger embossing folders which accommodates A2, A7 and A10 Sizes. The new length allows you to use some of those sizes with room to spare.
  3. Easier to use – the Alphabet labeled layers allow for easier understanding of the proper sandwich of materials

What are the main differences between the new Universal Cutting System and the original Platinum System?

  • The new system is longer to accommodate larger dies and slimline dies/embossing folders.
  • The cutting platform is now divided into TWO pieces to allow for more configurations of products, including 3D Embossing folders, and more products from other manufacturers that would previously not work within the Platinum Machine.
  • This system also includes an adapter plate and shim to help get that perfect amount of pressure needed for assorted thickness of dies, embossing folders, and cutting materials.
