Specialist folding can cover a host of subjects, from direct mail to calendars to large format for maps and placards. Miniature folding can also include direct mail, particularly multi-component mailing.
The new KL 45 from HERZOG+HEYMANN is the latest development for the miniature folding market segment. This entry level miniature folder was developed from the well established KL 112 platform, and is designed specifically for lightweight paper processing. With its high quality components, integrated batch counter, and double sheet detection, this machine has all the basics in one self contained solution.
Whether you are doing short or long job runs, the KL 45 can be optimised for your production with either a pile feeder or continuous feeder. Additionally, this system can be configured with a number of fold plate combinations for different job applications.
The K112 is specifically designed for the most difficult of tasks, but is still capable of producing at the highest production speed. It is provided with up to 14 buckle plates, and is perfectly adapted to produce:
Small folded and glued information material
Pharmaceutical instruction leaflets using lightweight printed paper: e.g, outserts,
lottery products…
Standard equipment on the KL 112 includes:
The M7/M8 are the profit centres for standard folds and products, especially in specific ‘niche’ areas.
All feeders with this unit, starting with the first folding unit onwards. As a result, subsequent extension with aggregates for lucrative additional tasks such as rubber coating, slitting in cycles, doubling paper or gluing products is possible. The M7 can be supplied in different working widths, from
42 cm up to 162 cm, as well as with up to 16 buckle plates.
Specific application areas for the M7 include:
Booklet applications
The M 7 multiple pocket folder allows the production of glued or stitched booklets with a high number of pages. With or without separate cover, glued or stitched, booklet labels with a closing tab or without
Poster folding machine
Folding of large formats of posters with optimized folding roller diameters and working widths.
2 x 32-page Signature folding – Working widths up to 165 cm for large format folding allow the production of 32-page signatures in 2up.
With both of the above models Herzog + Heymann can supply a large range of optional extras to further enhance available folding solutions.
Pick + Place module
The Pick + Place module is designed for universal use in folding systems and mailing systems in any position, or directly following the gatherer and stitcher. Attachment is possible in all printed product positions. The ‘GS’ version has a gripper / suction cup combination attachment for products that open at the front.
The Mailing profitcenter from Herzog + Heymann offers unexpected possibilities in product design, high flexibility and multiple configuration versions.
These are the most important conditions for a Mailing System.
Flexibility in mailing is the highest order:
Mobile feeder and mobile folding units.
Enough folding pockets to be prepared for corresponding requirements, e.g. profitable roll-fold.
Pre-cutter shafts for fitting timed cutting-or timed-perforating knives.
2nd pair of rear cutter shafts for straight cutting of the ups.
Height adjustable and therefore changeable folding units.
