Overview:

  • The Lassco Wizer CR50P is
    a heavy duty floor standing corner rounding unit that is ideal for
    industrial applications and commercial printers.
  • It is
    designed to allow you to quickly and easily add round corners to your
    documents, printed materials, business cards, and promotional items. It
    is simple to use, powerful and incredibly versatile.
  • This review will take a look at both the strengths and weaknesses of the CR50P corner rounding machine.

Strengths / Features:

  • The
    Lassco Wizer CR-50p electric cornerounder is one of the most versatile
    corner rounding machines available on the market. It can accept all
    sizes of corner rounding units. In fact, you can add a radius as small
    as 1/8″ to your items using this machine or as large as 1-1/2″. All you
    need to do is add the correct die. Plus the dies are simple to add and
    replace. All you need to do is loosen a couple of thumb screws, pop the
    old die out and insert the new die.
  • The CR50P has a mechanism
    that holds down the stack of documents during the cutting process.
    Plus, you use a foot pedal to engage the cutting unit which means that
    you use both hands to hold the materials during the corner rounding
    process.
  • The Lassco Wizer CR-50P has a heavy duty hardwood
    top that makes it simple to handle large format documents and stacks of
    materials. This hard wood top makes it simple to line up your documents
    during the rounding process.
  • It is fast, easy to use and
    extremely versatile. It is not quite as fast as the CR50PX which is a
    pneumatic unit but is considerably faster than the CR50 which is a
    manual unit.

Weaknesses / Limitations:

  • When
    rounding the corners on a large stack of paper or on heavier stocks I
    found that the entire document table on the CR50P flexed. This caused
    the documents to shift slightly and for the stack to not be rounded
    perfectly. Individually each item looked fine. However, in a stack you
    could see how the stack shifted during rounding. The only way that I
    found to fix this was to round the corners of the documents from one
    side and then to flip them over and round them from the other side.
    However, if you don’t want to do that you can always just round smaller
    sections at one time.
  • The CR50p uses a special system to hold
    the materials in place when rounding the corners. This works fairly
    well. However, it does tend to leave marks on the top document. In
    order to prevent this you need to use a piece of chipboard or an extra
    sheet of heavy cardstock that can be thrown away after it is rounded.
  • The
    chips produced when rounding corners with the CR50P are supposed to
    fall down a special chute and into a box or waste receptacle that you
    place under the unit. However , the chips sometimes back up within the
    cutting dies and need to be cleaned out. In order to deal with this you
    simply need to remove the cutting unit from the corner rounder and blow
    the chips out of it.

Recommendation:

  • The
    CR50P is an excellent option for print shops and industrial corner
    rounding applications. It is a heavy duty commercial corner rounder and
    is actually the cornerounder that we choose to use in our production
    facilities.
  • Although this is a good quality corner rounder it
    is not the most accurate corner rounder available on the market. It if
    is essential that all of your corners line up when stacked up it might
    be better to look at a larger unit such as the Diamond 5 which allows
    you to round a larger stack of materials at one time.
  • The CR50P is incredibly versatile and allows for cutting a huge number of radius corners. Check it out for yourself today.
