PAPERFOLDER KNIFE 14 CROSS FOLD SYSTEM
THE PAPERFOLDER KNIFE 14 CROSS FOLD SYSTEM is an automated cross fold system that can cross-fold
paper into very small sizes in one pass. It can perform up to 4 folds on a piece of paper, down to a
size 1/5 of the length and 1/2 of the width of the paper being folded.
The system is composed of the PH-14 four-plate (pharmaceutical) folding machine attached to a
KNIFE A4 folding machine. The PH-14 first folds paper into 2 to 5 panels along the length. It then exits
into the knife folder, which performs the single half fold, and exits onto a tray with a conveyor. Very
small, folded pieces cannot stack will on the conveyor, so they are normally output to a container
and then manually stacked.
All details on the PH-14 machine are in the first section of this manual.
This will cover the knife folder.
THE PAPERFOLDER KNIFE A3 KNIFE FOLDER
The knife folder is only used with a PH-14 to perform a cross fold. In this system, paper exits the PH-14
directly into the roller-fed knife folder and then exits from its side unto a conveyor.
INSTALLING THE A4 KNIFE FOLDER
After you have set up the PH-14 and run samples to make sure it is operating correctly, place it on a
sturdy table at least 48" x 24" and capable of holding at least 200 lbs.
Place the PH-14 on the left side as shown above. Then place the Knife folder on the right as shown.
