Press release submitted on behalf of EMT International

EMT International, a global leader in finishing equipment for digital print and label production, has introduced a next-generation creasing solution designed to help printers and mailers maintain flawless folds — even on heavy stocks and coated substrates.

Now available as a modular upgrade, EMT’s new Cross and Linear Creasing module delivers traditional, high-quality creases that prevent cracking and preserve print integrity throughout the finishing process. The system supports both cross-web and in-line creasing applications and is ideal for high-value direct mail, greeting cards, postcards, and other folded formats.

“Many of our customers are working with heavier materials and demanding print finishes, where scoring alone just doesn’t cut it,” said Mike Herold, Vice President of Marketing and Sales at EMT International. “This new creasing technology gives them the control, precision, and automation they need to protect their work — and their margins.”

Key features include:
• Dual-direction creasing: Easily configure tools for both fold directions to support a wide range of jobs
• Adjustable crease depth: Fine-tuned control to match media thickness and optimize quality
• Barcode and recipe integration: Automate crease setup using 2D barcodes and pre-programmed job recipes for seamless changeovers
Compatible with EMT’s Chameleon line and other finishing systems, this technology is designed for easy integration into existing workflows.
