Longitudinal slitting and creasing for corrugated board production.
Explore machine types
The thin-blade slitter-scorer is an important machine in a corrugated board production line. It is used for slitting and creasing corrugated board. The machine is located between the double facer and the NC cutter at the back end of the corrugator line. Longitudinal slitting and creasing allow you to process the board for different carton sizes. The processed board is then ready for cross-cutting, folding, and carton forming.
The machine produces clean cuts and clear creasing lines. It helps reduce burrs and crease cracking. This improves carton quality and production efficiency.
As a professional supplier of corrugated machinery, AGICO PAPER offers various configurations of corrugated slitter-scorer machines to suit different production speeds, automation levels, and budgets. Our range includes high-speed NC Servo, Electric Adjustment, and Standard and Lift-Type models. You can choose the right model based on your actual production needs.
The machine provides precise slitting and creasing with a high level of automation. It is suitable for corrugated box factories with high production speeds and large production volumes. Different models are available for different working widths and production needs. With the PLC system, job changeover takes just 3–8 seconds. Meanwhile, the slitter scorer adjusts the slitting and creasing positions. The blades can also be sharpened during operation. This reduces manual work and improves production efficiency.

The machine uses thin blades for longitudinal slitting and creasing wheels for creasing wide corrugated board. The process consists of three steps: feeding and pre-creasing, thin-blade slitting, and creasing. The machine then cuts the board into the required widths and creates clear creasing lines for folding.
Step 1: Feeding and Pre-Creasing
After the corrugated board enters the equipment, the board is smoothly fed in by the feed and pull rollers and embossing wheels, ensuring it passes through at a consistent speed. The pre-creasing wheels pre-condition the board and relieve internal stress. This helps reduce burst corners and cracking during the subsequent creasing process.
Step 2: Thin-Blade Slitting
The thin blades slit the board longitudinally at the preset positions and trim the edges, producing the required board widths.
Step 3: Creasing
The creasing wheels press longitudinal creasing lines at the preset positions. These lines provide accurate folding positions for carton forming. AGICO PAPER equipment supports different creasing patterns for different board materials and layers. The creasing pattern can be switched electrically to meet different production needs.
Precision & Quality
AGICO PAPER uses a PLC touchscreen control system. It supports precise slitting and creasing. Operators can monitor cutting parameters in real time. This helps maintain consistent cutting quality and smooth edges.
