Creasing machines. When paper or card is manufactured the fibres in the material lay in all directions. When folded by hand the fibres fold in various directions, this breaks the surface creating a messy unprofessional finish, when printing on coloured stock this will also show through the ink.  Using a creasing machine prevents these problems from occurring. Creasing machines compress the fibres in the material forming a u shaped channel. The material can now be folded without cracking.

Perforating machine. A perfortion is a process that creates a line of tiny holes in paper or card.  These holes act to create a join point in the paper, strong enough to hold the sheet together, but weak enough, so that should a deliberate pulling pressure be applied.  The material will seperate in a clean straight manor.  Typical applications for perforating included, tear of cheques, vouchers etc.
