Tooling for Meccanotecnica machines

18 Meccanotecnica machines mapped · 8 problems we solve on them

Our tooling retro-fits to the shafts your Meccanotecnica machines already have, so they crease, perforate and cut to a standard the original tooling was never built for. Find your model below, or tell us what you run and we’ll email you exactly what fits.

Signature creasing, by sheet weightA crease deep enough to hold the fold and gentle enough for light, porous signatures. Three colour-coded ribs instead of one fixed metal profile.Custom & OEM toolingA part that is obsolete, impossible to source, or never existed. If it is a wheel, a blade, a rib or a holder that touches paper or board, we can probably make it.

Machine-direction creasingCrease down the web at full press speed. No offline pass, no rotary die registration risk, no slowing the line for finishing.Micro-perforation on the webTear-off work perforated down the web, flat enough to keep processing and clean enough to tear by hand. Ten pitches, inline, no speed loss.Every finish, one cassetteCrease, score, perforate, cut and kiss-cut in any combination across the web. One retro-fitted cassette, reconfigured per job.Custom & OEM toolingA part that is obsolete, impossible to source, or never existed.

Other Meccanotecnica machines we hold

We haven’t written up a specific problem for these yet. That doesn’t mean we can’t help: if a machine has rotary shafts of any description, our tooling can replace what’s on them — see rotary creasing, micro-perforation and cutting. We engineer everything ourselves, so tell us what you run and we’ll work it out.
