This Heidelberg VF-66 is a used folding machine — sometimes referred to as a paper folder or sheet folder — offered from Germany with a stated year of manufacture of around 2008. Folding machines of this type are central to print finishing and bookbinding operations, automating the precise folding of printed sheets into signatures, brochures, and other end products. Heidelberg is a long-established German manufacturer whose equipment is widely used in commercial printing, packaging, and print finishing across the world.
This particular unit is a mobile four-knife folding machine, configured with a blade length of 660 mm and the sword positioned at the top. It is equipped with MCT control and offers an inlet height of 5,095 mm. The maximum sheet format it can handle is 560 mm wide by 660 mm long, while the minimum format is 15 mm wide by 10 mm long, giving it a broad operational range across different job sizes.
A key practical feature of this machine is its own independent drive combined with height adjustment, which makes it mobile and flexible to position within a bindery workflow. This makes it well suited for use as a supplementary folding station — for example, when an additional cross break is required beyond what an inline configuration can provide. The VF-66 is also capable of processing glued-and-folded or sealed sheets through to finished end products, extending its usefulness beyond standard uncoated stock.
The machine is noted as being compatible with optional downstream slitter shafts, which would allow head and foot trimming to be carried out as part of the finishing pass. The condition is used, and the machine is located in Germany.
