This Heidelberg TD 52-6-4-FD is a folding machine — sometimes referred to as a paper folder or sheet folder — designed to fold printed and unprinted sheets automatically and with high precision. Folding machines of this type are a core piece of finishing equipment in commercial print shops, binderies, and mailing operations, handling everything from brochures and leaflets to direct-mail inserts. Heidelberg is one of the most widely recognised names in the printing and print-finishing industry, known globally for producing high-quality presses and finishing equipment used across commercial, packaging, and industrial print production.
This particular machine was manufactured in 2000 and is offered in used condition from a seller based in Poland, priced at €9,000. It is configured with six plus four buckle plates and features an FD feeder — a flat pile feeder with integrated pressing rollers — which provides smooth, consistent sheet feeding during production runs.
The machine handles a maximum sheet size of 520 × 840 mm and a minimum of 100 × 150 mm, giving it a broad working range suited to common commercial formats. It accepts paper weights from 40 to 250 g/m², covering lightweight flyers through to heavier card stocks. Folding speed reaches up to 200 metres per minute, making it well suited to medium- and high-volume finishing environments.
Delivery can be configured for either vertical or horizontal output, offering flexibility depending on workflow and downstream handling requirements. An intuitive operator panel allows for straightforward adjustment and precise control of folding settings during operation.
