The Heidelberg BUH 56-2 is a used folding machine, sometimes referred to as a paper folder, designed to fold printed sheets with precision and consistency. Folding machines of this type are a core piece of finishing equipment in commercial print shops, binderies, and publishing operations, used to produce brochures, leaflets, newsletters, and book signatures. Heidelberg is one of the most respected names in the printing industry, producing a wide range of pre-press, press, and post-press equipment trusted by print professionals worldwide.
This 2007 machine is located in Germany and offers an inlet width of 56 cm, accommodating a broad range of sheet sizes suited to commercial print production. It is equipped with two pockets, meaning it can perform two sequential fold operations in a single pass — a configuration commonly used to produce parallel or cross folds for standard commercial formats.
A notable feature of this unit is its motorized ruler adjustment, which allows the operator to set fold positions electrically rather than by hand, improving setup speed and repeatability between jobs. Roller and buckle plate adjustment is also included, giving the operator control over the mechanical components that guide and crease the sheet through each fold stage — important for achieving clean, accurate folds across different paper weights and stocks.
