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 separate passes required
