Safe processes for elegant opening mechanisms.
Opening mechanisms are a major challenge: long make-ready times, low repeat accuracies and unstable cutting processes.
The Marbach solution: The new split anvil, a special reverse cutting technology which enables the implementation of particularly elegant opening mechanisms, with significantly reduced make-ready times and great results.
Opening perforations are practical but have disadvantages. On the one hand, they let dust through and, on the other, they do not look attractive. This is where reverse cutting technology can help, whereby both sides of the box are partially cut. This looks good and works perfectly thanks to Marbach.
With reverse cutting, the substrate is not cut through entirely but has slightly offset partial cuts from both sides. This maintains the printed image and the packaging remains sealed. Reverse cutting enables significantly more elegant opening mechanisms to be used with the packaging. Marbach has reliably mastered the counter-scoring technique for many years. The height adjustable anvil makes it even more efficient. This allows you to quickly and easily adjust the height of the anvil by inserting or removing foils positioned under the anvil.
The height adjustable anvil is available in a split version, perfectly tailored to the requirements of folding carton production. The result are considerably shorter make-ready times, stable die-cutting processes and maximum repeat accuracy.
The height-adjustable anvil is also available for corrugated board applications. You can find more information here
