T 960 Perfection Buckle Folder

Overview:

The T960 buckle folding machine is designed wider to allow production of large form sheets from the press up to (37.75″x 57″) or as a landscape folder for standard sheet sizes such as (23″ x 35″).  Landscape folding has become highly considered as a way to increase productivity simply by changing fold impositions.  When the sheet direction in the folder is changed from portrait to landscape, the productivity can increase as much as 30%.  Common sizes in the USA such as 23x x35 can easily make this change and realize a maximum fold speed jump for a standard 16 pager to over 23,000 sph.  Pallet feeders and automated delivery options for the T960 allow the productivity increase without additional labor.  The new M1 control system on the T960 has a very significant impact.  The simple user interface, menu driven function set, and logical touchscreen input make setup times as short as possible.  The combination of speed, features and controls all make the T960 capable of replacing older vintage folders in high ratios saving money and time, reducing labor, and reducing maintenance costs.
