The Stahl TF is a used folding machine — sometimes referred to as a paper folder or buckle folder — built in 1991 and currently located in Germany. Folding machines of this type are used in commercial printing, binderies, and finishing operations to automatically fold sheets of paper into a wide range of formats and configurations, handling everything from leaflets and brochures to signatures for bookbinding. Stahl is a well-established German manufacturer with a long history in the print finishing industry, recognised for producing precision folding equipment used by printers and bookbinders worldwide.
This machine is configured as a 16-page folder, with a folding arrangement of 6 buckles, 4 buckles, and 4 buckles across three stations, allowing complex multi-fold signatures to be produced in a single pass. It accepts a broad sheet format range, from a minimum of 140 × 180 mm up to a maximum of 780 × 1,200 mm, making it suitable for a wide variety of print formats. Paper weight capacity runs from 40 to 250 g/m², covering lightweight papers through to heavier stocks such as card and cover materials.
The machine is equipped with a round pile feeder, which enables continuous sheet feeding from a stacked pile, supporting efficient production runs. Delivery is handled by a SAL 66 delivery unit.
