What is the CP Applicator?

The CP Applicator represents revolutionary close proximity technology that produces micro-perforations as close as 5mm from crease lines - 80% closer than any OEM device. Where factory tooling requires massive 25mm+ spacing between operations, the CP Applicator brings single-pass capability to the most challenging modern design work.

This breakthrough enables perfect execution of signatures, tear-off coupons, event tickets and precision direct mail pieces featuring ultra-close crease and perforation proximity that would otherwise require costly two-pass production or complete rejection.

The Close Proximity Crisis

OEM Tooling Forces 25mm Minimum Spacing

  • • Two-pass production required for modern designs
  • • Registration nightmares cost hours daily
  • • 40% of design work must be rejected
  • • Customers forced to simplify designs
  • • Lost revenue from turned-away jobs

The Business Cost

  • • £195/hour productivity loss on two-pass work
  • • 15% material waste from misregistration
  • • Premium job opportunities lost to competitors
  • • Reputation damage from design limitations
  • • Operating below true profit potential

Market Reality: Today's signature work, event tickets, direct mail and tear-off coupons demand crease-to-perforation spacing your OEM tools simply cannot achieve. While designs evolve toward tighter tolerances, you're trapped with 1970s spacing limitations.

Visual Proof: Before & After

Without CP Applicator

Two-pass production required
  • • Two separate passes required
  • • Registration challenges
  • • Production delays
  • • Higher waste rates

With CP Applicator

Single-pass close proximity work
  • • Single-pass production
  • • Perfect registration
  • • 3mm proximity achieved
  • • Zero waste increase
