This Heidelberg Stahlfolder TH82-6-6-VFZ is a used folding machine — sometimes referred to as a buckle folder or paper folder — designed to fold printed sheets into multi-page signatures for booklets, brochures, and other folded print products. Heidelberg is one of the most widely recognised names in the printing industry, producing high-quality press and finishing equipment for commercial printers worldwide. This particular unit is configured specifically for 16-page cross folding, making it well suited to signature work in commercial and publication printing environments.
The machine was manufactured in 2013 and carries serial number 0-01500. Its rollers were renewed in 2020, indicating recent maintenance to one of the most wear-sensitive components of a folding machine. The folding configuration consists of six buckle plates combined with one knife folding unit — specifically a VFZ 52.D — giving the machine considerable flexibility across a range of fold types and signature formats.
Sheet size capacity ranges from a minimum of 140 × 180 mm to a maximum of 820 × 1,200 mm, accommodating formats from small inserts through to large press sheets. The machine operates at a maximum speed of 50,000 cycles per hour, which represents a high-throughput output suitable for production environments. Feeding is handled by a round pile feeder, the RFH-82, and delivery is by the Heidelberg SPH-70 delivery unit. A digital display is fitted for operator control and monitoring.
The machine is supplied with a compressor included, along with the original manuals. It is located in Emskirchen near Nuremberg, Germany, is available immediately from stock, and can be inspected and tested on site.
