This Heidelberg Stahlfolder KD 78-4-KZ is a folding machine — sometimes referred to as a paper folder or buckle folder — a type of finishing equipment used in commercial print and bookbinding operations to automatically fold sheets of paper into signatures, brochures, leaflets, and other folded products. Heidelberg is one of the most widely recognised names in the printing industry, manufacturing press and post-press finishing equipment trusted by printers and binderies worldwide.
Built in 1999 and carrying serial number , this machine is located in Emskirchen, near Nuremberg, Germany, and is available for immediate inspection and test running. It has a maximum working width of 780 mm, accommodating a broad range of sheet sizes suited to commercial finishing work.
The machine is configured with a round pile feeder for continuous sheet feeding, paired with a two-station fold system. The first station provides four buckle pockets, enabling multiple parallel fold combinations, while the second station is equipped with three knife folds with left and right delivery options, giving considerable flexibility in the range of finished fold styles that can be produced. Delivery is handled by a Stahl SBP 46 standing sheet delivery stacker, which collects and stacks the folded output in an upright position for easy removal and further handling.
The machine includes a Rietschle compressor as part of the installation, providing the air supply needed to operate the feeder and folding components. Operator and maintenance documentation is included in the form of original manuals. A video inspection via Skype is also available for remote buyers ahead of any visit.
