Friedheim International is formally announcing the launch of a new high-speed paper folding machine, expanding its portfolio of advanced post-press solutions.
With extensive experience both in this market segment and with folding equipment specifically, Friedheim is excited to make this news public and invite customers to explore the new range.
The newly introduced folding machine has been developed in collaboration with leading Chinese manufacturer AOQI known for producing high-performance, precision-engineered equipment. The result is a robust, high-speed solution designed to meet the demands of modern print environments while maintaining exceptional reliability and output quality.
Friedheim enjoys a reputation for delivering high-quality machinery backed by exceptional service and support and is proud to levy this reputation with this latest market innovation in the UK and European print industries.

The new folder combines AOQI’s quality engineering with user-friendly operation, making it suitable for a wide range of commercial print and finishing applications. The machines are capable of delivering high productivity levels, supporting businesses looking to increase throughput and efficiency without compromising on quality.
The range deals with paper sizes from 70mm to 1150mm (minimum and maximum dimensions respectively) and speeds up to 220m/m (depending on model chosen). The options list includes a labelling machine, hot melt gluing unit, vertical stacker, pressing unit, parallel knife, and cross fold machine.
The new range is available exclusively through Friedheim’s sales and service network, with full installation, training, and after-sales support provided by its experienced team of engineers. Friedheim already has a visitor site established with the machine running and delivering folded products at regular shift rates.
A key advantage of the systems is the highly attractive price points and short lead times, offering UK print businesses access to premium-level performance at a significantly more accessible investment level. This reflects Friedheim’s ongoing commitment to sourcing and delivering best-in-class technology from around the world, tailored to the needs of its customers.
Commenting on the launch, Friedheim stated that the addition reinforces its mission to provide dependable solutions that help customers remain competitive in an evolving market – offering futureproof, intuitive operation alongside consistent production quality.
