Fast-Fit Tri-Creaser eliminates fibre-cracking

A Tech-ni-Fold product story
Edited by the Printingtalk editorial team Nov 10, 2008

Each creasing rib supplied with the Fast-Fit Tri-Creaser is split, allowing it to be quickly inserted or removed from the male locking component.

The profile in the male component matches the profile and shape of the creasing rib, ensuring that once inserted, the creasing rib is comfortably held in position and then locked into place by the sliding locking collar.

This creates letterpress quality creasing without defects.

This means users don't need to remove the slitter shafts from their folding machine to change crease settings.

Using the rubber creasing formula eliminates the fibre-cracking on printed and folded products.

The width and depth of the crease impression produced on the paper also helps eliminate fibre-cracking.

Three types of rubber creasing ribs are supplied with the Fast-Fit Tri-Creaser, each made with different height profiles to cater for a range of paper weights and thicknesses that would pass through a folding machine from 85-350gsm.

The creasing rib dictates the depth of crease and the eight-channel female former produces the correct creasing width for the chosen paper.

The Fast-Fit Tri-Creaser is set by loading any one of the three creasing ribs into the male component and matching it with a female channel opposite.

Colour-coding speeds up this process.
