Speed Up Your Short-to-Medium Run Production

Run more jobs, die-cut more substrates, and expand your capabilities with our versatile No More Make-ready Crest Clamshells.

The Crest Clamshell’s fast setup, precise die cuts, and high tonnage capability eliminate bottlenecks and increase your short-to-medium run production. The Crest accurately die cuts virtually any substrate: Styrene, polycarbonates, paper, PVC, corrugated and even thicker materials like Falconboard®, Foam Core, and Ultra® Board.

Whatever your niche, the versatile Crest is a cost-effective choice for applications including graphic overlay, product identification, large format printing, POP displays, digital finishing, thermal die cutting, kiss cutting, embossing, and more.

Not sure how our Crest Clamshell can benefit your operation? We offer advice and training on die-cutting processes to help maximize your productivity and quality. Plus, our service division, MPN Services, provides preventive maintenance, emergency repair, and phone consultation for our clamshell presses.
