    Creasers and perforators

    Creasers and perforators — My Print creasers and perforators prepare dense paper, card, laminated covers and advertising materials for a clean fold or controlled tear-off.

    The category includes manual models for small runs, electric machines for regular work and an automatic digital creaser with programmable positions.

    How to choose a model

     
    In short: for small runs, a manual CR Base is enough; if you need a tear-off line, choose a perforation model. For regular work choose CR Pro, and for programming many score positions on one sheet choose CR Auto 350-P.

    How to use a creaser

     
    1
    Choose the operation
    Creasing is for clean folding; perforation is for tear-off; slitting is only for models with the matching tool.
    2
    Pick the model
    Manual machines fit short runs, electric machines fit regular batches, automatic machines fit repeat production flow.
    3
    Set the format
    Adjust side guides and working width to the actual sheet, not just to the model name.
    4
    Set the lines
    Set crease or perforation positions; for covers, plan the spine and two hinge lines at once.
    5
    Run a test
    The first sheet is always a test: check depth, parallelism and absence of cracking on the fold.
    6
    Run the batch
    After the test, process the run and periodically check early sheets, roller dust and position stability.

    What to compare

     

    Working width

    Check the actual working width, not the number in the model name: CR Pro 500 is confirmed at 460 mm.

    Drive type

    Manual is simpler and cheaper; electric reduces effort; automatic repeats score positions quickly.

    Perforation

    Needed for tickets, coupons, stubs and tear-off forms. It is not required for a normal fold.

    Stock weight

    Creasing and perforation can have different stock ranges; do not copy one number to every operation.

    Crease depth

    For laminated and coated materials, start shallower to avoid surface damage.

    Task matching

    Format, run size and perforation need matter more than simply choosing the most expensive model.

    We’ll match the creaser to your work

    Tell us the sheet format, stock weight, whether perforation is needed and how many sheets you process per day. This avoids paying for automation where a manual machine is enough.

    Tip
    Creasing is not folding. The creaser presses the future fold line, and the actual fold is made afterwards. That is why dense digital print should be creased before folding.

    FAQ about "Creasers and perforators":

    A creaser presses the future fold line, while folding actually bends the sheet. Creasing is needed before folding dense, coated, laminated or digitally printed stock to reduce cracking and breaking.

    Perforation is needed when part of the sheet must tear off neatly: tickets, coupons, stubs, forms and tear-off parts. It is not required for a regular cover or postcard fold.

    • CR Base — a simple manual option for small runs.
    • CR Base 460-P — when a tear-off line is needed together with creasing.
    • CR Pro — when manual effort becomes too slow.

    For CR Pro 500, the published working width is 460 mm. 500 remains the model/commercial name, not the declared feed width.

    No. Perforation must be checked by model and tool set. In this line, perforation is confirmed for CR Base 460-P, CR Pro 500, CR Pro 660-P and CR Auto 350-P.

    CR Auto 350-P has digital position input, can make up to 32 creases per sheet, save jobs and repeat production tasks faster. Manual models are simpler and cheaper, but depend more on the operator.
