This GUK FA 35-4-R1-AS is a flexo-folder gluer — a machine used in the folding carton and printed packaging industry to print, fold, and glue flat cardboard blanks into finished box forms ready for filling. These machines are sometimes referred to as folder-gluers or folding-gluing machines. GUK is a German manufacturer with a long-standing reputation in the folding and inserting machinery sector, producing equipment primarily for the print-finishing and paper-processing industries.
The machine handles a maximum sheet format of 350 × 650 mm and a minimum format of 70 × 90 mm, giving it a practical range suited to a wide variety of carton and folded-product sizes. The smallest achievable fold is 15 mm, which allows for fine, compact fold structures where required. Output speed ranges from 10,000 to 30,000 sheets per hour depending on the material being processed, reflecting the variability typical of folding equipment working across different board weights and configurations.
Feeding is handled by a friction feeder, designated R1 in this configuration. The machine features four folding pockets with a 35 cm inlet width, and noise protection is fitted — a practical addition that reduces ambient sound levels during production. Steel rubber rollers are installed throughout the folding and transport path, providing a combination of rigidity and grip suited to consistent, accurate folding. A downstream cutter block is included, extending the machine's capability to perform cutting operations after the folding sequence.
Built in 1985 and located in Germany, this machine is offered in used condition.
