This Stahl T 52 44 - F is a folding machine — sometimes referred to as a paper folder — designed for the automated folding of printed sheets in commercial and industrial print finishing operations. Stahl is a well-established German manufacturer with a long history of producing folding and binding equipment for the printing and bookbinding industries, and their machines are widely used in finishing rooms ranging from small trade shops to large-scale production environments.
This particular machine dates from 1990 and is offered in used condition from a seller based in Germany. With a working width of 52 cm, it is configured as a two-station system offering considerable folding flexibility. Sheet feeding is handled by a TREMAT flat pile feeder, which presents sheets individually from a flat stack for smooth, consistent entry into the folding sequence.
The first folding station is equipped with four folding pockets at 52 cm width, giving a broad range of parallel fold combinations at that stage. Integrated into this station is an HHS gluing device for cold glue application, which allows adhesive to be applied inline during the folding process — a valuable feature for products such as glued brochures, mailers, or pasted booklets. A knife shaft follows the first station, enabling cross-fold cuts where required.
The second folding station similarly carries four folding pockets at 52 cm, again followed by a knife shaft for additional cross-fold capability. A flexible folding knife designated EF 43 is also included, extending the range of fold formats the machine can produce. Delivery of finished folded products is handled by a SAK stream delivery unit, which shingles the output for neat, controlled stacking.
The machine is available for immediate delivery and carries the seller's reference ST250247A.
