This Heidelberg Stahlfolder TD Folding Machine is a used folding machine — sometimes referred to as a paper folder or sheet folding machine — designed to fold printed or unprinted sheets into a wide range of formats for commercial printing and finishing applications. Heidelberg is one of the world's most recognised names in print technology, producing equipment for the graphic arts, commercial printing, and finishing industries, and the Stahlfolder line is among its best-known product families in the paper folding sector.
This example was built in 2001 and carries serial number 701544. It is located in Germany and is available in used condition.
The machine is configured for buckle folding with a 4-4-2 arrangement — meaning it features ten buckle plates in total, grouped across three folding stations — which enables it to produce a broad range of fold combinations, including the sixteen-page folds referenced in the seller's notes. This multi-station configuration is well suited to demanding commercial finishing work where complex fold patterns are required.
The maximum working width is 940 mm, allowing the machine to handle large format sheets. Sheet feeding is handled by a round pile feeder, which automatically separates and delivers sheets from a rotating circular stack, supporting continuous operation with minimal manual intervention. Finished folded output is handled by a stream delivery, which fans sheets into an overlapping sequence as they exit the machine, facilitating neat, easy removal and stacking downstream.
