Key Features

Feeder

Flat Pile Feeder:

  • The Fi flat pile feeder is ideal for small to medium runs and frequent job changes.
  • Airwing blowers ensure sheet separation, guaranteeing high process reliability.
  • Sheets are transferred reliably by the two hole-suction wheel with PU coating to the alignment table.
  • The ball rail with prism rule ensures optimal sheet alignment and transfer to the first folding unit, even with challenging landscape formats.

Round Continuous Feeder:

  • The Ri round continuous feeder operates nonstop, suitable for larger circulations.
  • It runs continuously, boosting daily production by over 15% compared to the flat pile feeder.
  • Capable of processing sensitive papers and pre-folded, pre-perforated, or creased signatures.

Digital control system CCT

Intuitive Control Panel with Graphic Symbols and Functions:

The control panel, situated at the feeder’s center, allows for comprehensive control and monitoring of all folder functions. Operation of the entire machine network is effortless through a graphical interface featuring step-by-step symbols and direct keys. Special functions such as the learning mode and counter enhance machine operation, simplifying the process.

Accessories

Diverse Options for Enhanced Value:

Folding rollers

Precision Folding with Mark-Free Sheet Guidance: Advanced Folding Roller Technology

ExtraGrip Folding Roller Technology: The ExtraGrip folding rollers feature a unique distribution of steel and polyurethane rings, preventing crossover of steel segments between parallel folding rollers. Increased polyurethane rings by approximately 30% per folding roller enhance drag force, ensuring excellent fold accuracy and precise straight-line guidance of signatures. Available in two variants:

  • Soft-PU-ExtraGrip folding rollers cover a wide range of papers above 50 g/m².
  • Hard-PU version is ideal for processing lightweight paper.

Buckle plates

Versatile Buckle Plates for Maximum Flexibility

Buckle Plates with Swing Deflector and Combination Buckle Plates:

  • The Stahlfolder Ti folding machines come standard with buckle plates featuring swing deflectors.
  • Optionally, the Stahlfolder Ti 52 offers combination buckle plates, easily convertible into sheet turnouts without downtime.

Gatefold Buckle Plate:

  • The pneumatic gatefold buckle plate enables high-speed cycling of up to 15,000 cycles per hour while maintaining consistent fold quality.
  • The digital control unit ACC 2.4 precisely regulates the switching points of the pneumatic gatefold buckle plate, independently of fold speed.
  • Fold lengths of up to 6.5 centimeters are achievable with the pneumatic gatefold buckle plate.

Slitter shafts

Versatile Creasing, Perforating, and Cutting Capabilities with Rear-Mounted Slitter Shafts

The Stahlfolder Ti folding machines come standard with a pair of rear-mounted slitter shafts with plug connection. This feature enables creasing, perforating, and cutting operations within the folder, enhancing fold quality and facilitating multi-up processing.
