Scoring-Perforating Attachment for Letterpress-Quality Scoring Score and fold in one operation at the speed of folding. Quality equal to or better than letterpress score! Gives a true fiberstretch score, eliminating cracking on critical stocks. Quick change-over time: 5-15 minutes. Less than one tenth the cost of larger in-line scoring machines. New Micro-perf available as a low-cost option.

• Paper goes straight from the side guide of the feed table into the first pair of rollers only, then into the Econocrease (meaning virtually no loss of register from the side guide). Paper then drops into the cross-carrier for folding in the right angle section or onto the stacker for scoring only.
• Econocrease has an extremely fine depth adjustment. This precise control is needed to eliminate cracking on web oven-dried stock with heavy ink coverage. The depth adjustment on Stahl and MBO folders is straight up and down (no gradual movement). Econocrease works with an eccentric for a more precise adjustment.
• The score wheels are solid male and female dies, similar to those found on heavy-duty Perfect Binder cover feeders. However, a special manufacturing process eliminates any possibility of a lope in the score (due to tightening the set screw). The end result: virtually no difference between a letterpress matrix scored sheet and an econocrease scored sheet.
