About this machine

This Heidelberg KH66-6-KTL is a used folding machine — sometimes referred to as a paper folder or buckle folder — designed to fold printed sheets into a wide variety of formats for the print finishing industry. Heidelberg is one of the most widely recognised names in printing and print finishing equipment, supplying presses, cutters, and folding systems to commercial printers, packaging operations, and binderies worldwide. Their folding machines, marketed under the Stahlfolder brand, are regarded as workhorses of the post-press environment.

This particular machine is a combination folding machine, meaning it integrates both buckle and knife folding sections to handle a broad range of folding patterns and sheet sizes. The configuration is specified as six buckle stations, one knife, one side buckle, and a further knife, giving it considerable flexibility for complex and multi-page fold sequences. The machine accepts sheets from a minimum format of 140 × 180 mm up to a maximum of 660 × 1,040 mm, covering a wide spectrum of standard and large commercial sheet sizes.

A flat pile feeder is fitted, allowing sheets to be loaded from a stack rather than a continuous roll, which is the standard arrangement for sheetfed print finishing work. The machine also features automatic folding roller adjustment, which reduces makeready time when switching between jobs or formats. Operating speed is rated at 50,000 cycles per hour. The delivery unit is an SPH-70, also built in 2012 and therefore matched in age to the main machine body.

The machine was manufactured in 2012 and carries serial number 0-00921. A compressor is included with the sale, as are the original operator manuals. The unit is held in stock at Emskirchen, near Nuremberg, Germany, is available for immediate collection, and can be inspected and tested on site.
