SYSTEM
INTRODUCTION
The Atlas C100 is a fully automatic suction feeding creasing
system designed for use with both conventional litho and digital printers.
The feed on the Atlas C100 can also be manually operated for use
with heavy stock, very small or very large sheets, embossed or even irregular
sheets.
The crease is programmed from the leading edge of the sheet using the
controls on the front panel.
The blade and anvil are mechanically controlled over their entire length
and can be adjusted to accommodate various weights of media.
The operating environment should be controlled to a temperature between
16° C and 27° C Maximum

Quick Start Guide
Setting the machine to operate in automatic sheet feed mode
1. Set the gap between the paper gate and the vacuum roller to approximately twice
the thickness of the stock to be creased.
2. Place the stock to be creased onto the loading table against the fixed side lay.
3. Release the clamps on the adjustable side lay and slide up to the paper stack
allowing a gap of approximately 0.5mm (1/64 inch) between the paper and the side
lay.
4. Position the backstop and slide it up to the paper stack, also allowing a gap (as
stated in the above step).
5. Turn the Emergency Stop button clockwise to switch the power on. After the
system start up procedure the touch screen will be displayed as shown below.
