This Stahl TF 56 44-R is a used folding machine — sometimes referred to as a paper folder or buckle folder — manufactured in 1993 and currently located in Germany. Folding machines of this type are used in print finishing operations to automatically fold sheets of paper into a variety of formats, and are a standard fixture in commercial printing, bookbinding, and mailing houses. Stahl is a well-established German manufacturer with a long history of producing high-quality paper folding and finishing equipment for the graphic arts industry.
The machine has a working width of 56 cm and is configured across two folding stations. The first station carries four folding pockets at 56 cm width, followed by a knife shaft; the second station mirrors this layout with a further four folding pockets at 56 cm and an additional knife shaft. This two-station, eight-pocket arrangement with knife folding capability allows for a broad range of complex fold patterns combining buckle and knife folding methods.
Sheet feeding is handled by a rotary feeder, and a stream delivery unit (SAK 56) is fitted at the output end. A counter with a capacity of 100 pieces is included. Noise-absorbing hoods are fitted to the machine, reducing ambient sound levels during operation.
It should be noted that the machine is supplied without compressors or an air supply, so buyers will need to provide their own compressed air source on installation. The reference number for this listing is ST230282A, and the machine is available for worldwide shipping and installation.
