This Heidelberg Twinstacker TS is a folding machine — a category of equipment used in commercial print finishing to fold printed sheets into brochures, leaflets, booklets, and other folded products. Heidelberg is one of the most widely recognised names in the global printing industry, manufacturing sheetfed and web offset presses, postpress finishing systems, and related ancillary equipment for commercial, packaging, and industrial print applications. This particular unit is offered as a used machine from 2006, located in Germany, and carries serial number FH.DMA0-00272.
The machine functions as a vertical stacking delivery system — sometimes referred to as a stack delivery unit — designed to handle the output of folding machines operating at high speeds. Its core purpose is to receive individually pressed sheets via a belt section, transport them without marking, and form stacks from the top in catch baskets, laying them out alternately across two stacking levels arranged one above the other. This dual-level configuration enables effective non-stop operation, allowing one stack to be removed while the other is being formed, making it well suited to one-man operation.
The format range runs from a minimum of 100 × 100 mm to a maximum of 700 × 340 mm, and the system accommodates products up to 6 mm in thickness. Each stacking level accepts a maximum stacking height of 100 mm. The delivery is capable of handling both isolated sheets and shingle-stream output, giving it flexibility across different upstream configurations. Mark-free laying out is a stated feature, with capacity for up to two uses, and ergonomic removal is incorporated to support operator comfort and efficiency.
The unit is rated for compatibility with folding machines running at speeds of up to 18,000 cycles per hour, placing it in the medium-to-high capacity range. A height-adjustable feed table allows the Twinstacker to be positioned at various preliminary stations, adding further flexibility in line configurations. An MCT control panel is included. The machine is classified under accessories for folding and carries machine number .
