bursters
Things that pop
Bursters are machines that separate continuous-form paper along its perforations, typically in high-volume printing operations where documents printed on connected sheets need to be split into individual pages.
The term also applies to anything that bursts—explosive devices, sudden outbursts, or things that emerge forcefully: The storm brought real gully bursters.
