What is Section Score?
The Section Score represents our revolutionary breakthrough in signature and section work scoring technology. While folding machine innovation has evolved dramatically over 20 years with computerized auto-setup, OEM scoring tools remain trapped in 1850s technology with the same destructive elements that destroy modern signature work.
The Section Score delivers scoring depths 3 times deeper than OEM versions, creating the only rotary device that produces scores deep enough for products to fold perfectly by hand - guaranteeing your folding machine's buckle plate or knife unit registers 100% on the score for perfect fold consistency.
The Signature Scoring Crisis
OEM Tools Are Destroying Your Signature Work
- • Front edge tearing from abrasive steel blades
- • Weak V-shaped scores cause inconsistent folding
- • Complex setup turns operators into guesswork technicians
- • 170-year-old technology can't handle modern stocks
- • Limited to lightweight papers
Production Impact
- • 15-20% waste from tears and reprints
- • Speed reductions to minimize damage
- • Lost revenue from rejected jobs
- • Operator frustration with quality
- • Damage to company reputation
Industry Reality: Your factory scoring tools create three critical problems that devastate signature quality - front edge tearing from abrasive steel blades, weak V-shaped scores that cause inconsistent folding, and complex setup procedures that turn operators into guesswork technicians instead of precision professionals.
