Formax FD90 / FD230 Air-Feed Creaser/Perforator Demo
Product Details
Formax air-feed creaser/perforator demo for digital print finishing. The unit creases and perforates digital-printed sheets in a single pass — preventing toner cracking on folds and adding tear-off perforation for response cards and tear-edges. (Note: the inventory file lists this video under both Atlas C100/C200 and Formax FD90/FD230 product families; treat it as a generic air-feed creaser/perforator demo that applies to either OEM's equivalent unit.)
What this video shows: Digital-printed sheets feeding through the air-feed mechanism, creasing and perforating heads applying configured operations along the sheet, and clean output ready for downstream folding. Substrate handling on toner-printed and coated digital stock.
Who buys air-feed creaser/perforators: Print shops finishing digital print output with toner cracking on fold lines. Direct mail houses adding tear-off response cards to printed mailers. Operations producing tear-along-edge content for forms and notices. In-house design departments creasing brochures and invitations before folding.
Why air-feed for creasing: Friction feeders catch on coated and toner-printed digital stock. Air-suction picks each sheet cleanly without slip or double-feed — critical for creasing where each sheet must register precisely with the creasing head.
Key specs: Air-feed creaser/perforator | Substrate: digital print stock, coated and uncoated | Operations: creasing and perforating (configurable) | Throughput: production rate (specific to OEM model) | Available across Atlas C-series and Formax FD-series equivalents
Frequently asked
Does this video cover Atlas C100/C200 or Formax FD90/FD230?
The video shows the workflow at a generic air-feed creaser/perforator level — the concepts apply to both product families. For specific spec match to your unit, confirm with a Mailtech specialist.
Is creasing always needed before folding digital print?
For toner-printed stock — usually yes, to prevent toner cracking. For uncoated offset print, often no — fold quality is acceptable without prior creasing.
Can we do perforating without creasing in the same job?
Yes — operations are independently configurable. Perforating-only and creasing-only jobs are both supported.
