Material tearing or shredding.
Try a different material or a thinner weight of your current material. Ensure the cutting edges of the folder are clean and free from debris.

Verify that your machine is compatible with the thickness of the sandwich you have created. Adjust the plates or check the machine's maximum capacity.
