This used MBO K 800.1-SKTL-4 is a folding machine — sometimes referred to as a paper folder or sheet folder — designed to automate the folding of printed sheets in commercial and industrial print finishing workflows. MBO is a well-established German manufacturer with a long history of producing high-quality folding and finishing equipment for the printing and graphic arts industries.
This particular machine is a semi-automatic, adjustable combination folding machine, meaning it is capable of executing multiple fold configurations rather than a single fixed fold type, and its settings can be adapted to suit different job requirements. It is listed under the full designation MBO K 800.1-SKTL-4-FP 120 Navigator and dates from 2003.
A notable feature of this machine is its four pockets, all of which are motor-adjustable, allowing the operator to set pocket positions conveniently and precisely without manual mechanical intervention at each station. The machine is equipped with cutter shafts and thrust axles, which are components associated with trimming and controlled sheet transport through the folding sequence.
This is a KTL version fitted with a sword, a configuration that uses a blade-type mechanism to initiate folds by pushing the sheet between rollers — a well-regarded method for achieving clean, accurate folds on a range of paper stocks. The listing also notes that the bag is in the lying position, referring to the orientation of the delivery pocket or collection bag at the output end of the machine. The sword feature is separately confirmed, underlining this as a core element of the machine's folding mechanism.
The machine is offered in used condition and is located in Germany.
