A tool that delivers what it promises.

CPS & CPS-R – The high-performance system for the production of corrugated board packaging.

When it comes to corrugated board processing, productivity, dimensional accuracy, and zero waste are key – and that means maximum precision at all times. That's exactly why Marbach developed the Corrugated Performance System (CPS) for flat cutting dies and the CPS-R for rotary cutting dies. This high-performance system impresses packaging manufacturers with its maximum performance and minimal wear.

One system. One standard. Two variants.

Packaging manufacturers are under pressure every day: machines must run smoothly, packaging must be precise and functional, and waste must be avoided – all while meeting increasing demands on service life and tool life. Whether rotary or flat – the challenges are the same: high productivity, minimal set-up times, stable processes and waste-free results. The CPS and CPS-R were developed precisely for this purpose. Both systems follow a standardized design that works in any production environment, regardless of machine type or manufacturer.

The principle behind it: a well-thought-out system, perfectly matched components, and the bundled know-how from decades of Marbach experience.

CPS – your solution for flat corrugated board tools.
Would you like to make your die-cutting processes more efficient, more stable, and simpler? Then the CPS – Corrugated Performance System from Marbach is exactly what you need. With CPS, you receive standardized tool solutions that are delivered “ready to run” – in other words, ready for immediate use. This significantly reduces your set-up times and saves valuable production time.

Thanks to the intelligent coordination of all components – from the cutting rules to the ejector elements – you benefit from stable processes without sheet breaks or the tedious regrinding of nicks. The system guarantees 100% waste-free production, as nicks, offsets, and overlays are precisely coordinated. At the same time, you achieve a consistently high cutting quality that is maintained over a significantly longer service life.

Another advantage: The targeted interaction of the materials reduces the required cutting pressure by up to 10% – which protects your machines and the material.

And because every paper has its individual characteristics, every CPS tool is adapted to the paper quality you have available. In addition, the latest findings are continuously incorporated into the further development of the system – for even better results in your production.

CPS-R – your solution for rotary corrugated board tools.
Do you rely on rotary die-cutting processes and want to make them more stable, durable, and economical? Then CPS-R – the Corrugated Performance System Rotary from Marbach – is the right choice for you.

With CPS-R, you get a standardized high-performance system for rotary processing of corrugated board. All customers work with the same high quality standard, regardless of machine type or location. Thanks to sophisticated laser technology, high-quality materials, and intelligent assembly specifications, the system works reliably in any production environment – right from the start. The perfectly coordinated components enable you to maximize machine running times while minimizing set-up and downtimes. Packaging produced with CPS-R is dimensionally accurate, functional, and 100% waste-free – even at high production speeds.

The use of low-wear materials and an assembly-optimized design means you benefit from a significantly longer tool life and consistently high punching quality over many applications. It also makes economic sense: lower abrasion and reduced rework requirements lead to sustainable cost reductions – in ongoing operation as well as in maintenance and spare parts requirements.

And best of all, the clearly defined system structure allows CPS-R to be easily and efficiently integrated into your existing processes – for a smooth transition and noticeable relief in daily use.
