Creasing Machines

The CreaseStream Digital CardFolder is a combination of the CreaseStream Auto-Feed MKII and the new CardFolder system. The Digital CardFolder enables you to create 5 fold types including the most common half, letter or Z folds. The fold is achieved by a combination of manually adjustable fold plates and large diameter rubber rollers. This simple but revolutionary solution allows you to create professionally printed and folded digital media in stocks up to 350gsm.

The key to this system is the creasing quality and the ability to crease in both positive and negative formats in the same pass prior to inline folding. The CreaseStream Auto-feed MKII plays its part by flawlessly processing stocks up to 350gsm without marking the toner. However, its all about the quality of the crease that makes this solution so special. The rotary driven and patented Tri-Creaser Advance ensures the sheets are perfectly creased so the folding becomes a formality.

Aesthetic templates are supplied for all major fold types and sheet sizes. These templates correlate with the colour coded reference points printed onto the folding unit to enable immediate and fault-free machine make ready. From sheet feeding right through to delivery all the settings are worked out for you ensuring accurate fold results every time. Simply follow the steps to get perfect creasing and folding.

Due to the high speed rotary creasing action the CreaseStream Card Folder system offers up to twice the processing speed of other automated creasing systems on the market. Capable of creasing and folding at speeds in excess of 5,000 sheets per hour, regardless of fold type, the Digital CardFolder will streamline your production process.

CreaseStream Auto-feed MKII

The CreaseStream Auto-feed MKII is an automated high speed creasing solution for today’s digital printer. Designed for businesses that produce both short and high-volume production runs. This is the next level of automation, making the Auto Feed MKII one of the easiest creasers to operate. Just set the tools, press the button and you’ll get up to 5,000 sheets of perfectly creased media per hour.

Digital stocks can be prone to marking or scuffing because the creaser uses a vacuum pump during feeding. The Auto-feed MKII eliminates this problem with an innovative gravity flow feeder. This gently kisses the sheets, making only minimum contact and therefore zero opportunity to mark delicate work. The end result, flawlessly creased sheets every time with no damage to the fibres of the media.

Patented Tri-Creaser Advance technology is the only application especially designed to crease both sides of the sheet to enhance crease strength and presentation. Crease ribs gently manipulate and stretches the media to eliminate cracking during the folding stage. Adjustable locking side lays guide the media into the creasing tools. Whilst guide rollers ensure the media remains square during the creasing process where up to 2 creases can be performed simultaneously. Crease tools can be reversed to crease positively into or negatively out of the sheet. This feature is very useful for fold patterns that require a positive and negative crease in the same pass, for instance a Z Fold.

The Auto-feed MKII also has the ability to produce cylinder quality micro-perforation with optional tooling. Produces fine and flat micro-perforations on materials from 64 to 400gsm. Perforation quality is so high that perforated sheets can be run through a laser or digital printer, trouble free!
