Hello everyone,
I was hoping for a little help with something. We used to score everything with a Letterpress but its getting quite old, and I wasnt happy with the scoring quality. (Plus I find it slow to set up and run). So we invested in two things.. a tabletop Morgana for small run and a heidelburg scoring wheel for our baum folder.
Anyway, the score wheel for the folder is great for any kind of substantial run, we are having no cracking issues that I am concerned about, but we are having serious consistency issues. The sheets are going horribly crooked, some are good, but a LOT are bad. It seems the thicker we go with stock the worse it is. The stock we are deadlocked on right now is just a 100 lb. Cougar Cover. That is basically as thick as we go anyway.
Another side issue which isnt too much of one is that the folder curls the sheet quite a bit after it goes through.. does anyone know if thats just the way it is, or if that doesnt sound right?
Any help or advice at all would be really really appreciated.
Thanks,
Cameron
