Cross Folds
Because the items to be folded during the cross fold processes are naturally thicker than in the length folding section, mechanical blades are always used for cross folding.
In the first and second cross fold, a blade pushes the item to be folded between the folding rollers, or between the folding rollers and the belt which adjusts to the various material thicknesses.
The optional third cross fold utilizes a combined reverse belt/blade fold.
The folding stations in the cross fold section, all work like a pinch device in order to ensure the exact fixing and smoothing of the fold edges and the fold format.
Program Control
Different articles can be processed in a mixed batch without the operator at the feeding machine having to make a decision or give a single command. Thanks to the measurement of the pieces before the length fold stations, together with a corresponding match in the computer, a constant complete tracking of the pieces is guaranteed. As a result, it is not necessary to run the ironing line empty when a program change is required, for example from small to large pieces. The large pieces can be processed after the small pieces or vice versa.
Transporting/Stacking/Sorting
Transporting - The folded pieces are discharged onto the table located on the side.
Stacking (option) - The item is places on the stack by retracting the delivery trolley according to the roll-off principle.
Sorting (option) - According to the signals which can be given to a single item at the feeding section, the folding machine can sort up to to criteria, rewash or repairs. When two stacking devices are placed next to each other, an automatic sorting according to article size can be performed. This eliminates pre-sorting.
