Rapid shear creasing requires tailored interply delamination toughness to prevent liner fracturing while reducing folding torque on high-speed lines.

Rate-dependent cohesive zone models prevent high-speed converting delamination by accurately predicting paperboard interlaminar shear failure at production speeds.

Paperboard expands five to seven times more across the grain than along it, requiring precise humidity control and pass timing to maintain converting register.

Interfacial shear strain from thermal mismatch drives delamination; controlling cooling gradients and dyne levels prevents bond failure at crease lines.

Unheated storage alters multi-ply boxboard moisture equilibrium, swelling sheet edges, reducing internal bond strength, and causing severe converting curl.

Matrix channel width equals creasing rule thickness plus board caliper multiplied by grade constants ranging from 1.4 for SBB to 1.7 for WLC.
