Patented Vertical Bucklefolder

Benefits

  • Eliminates creasing on thick stocks
  • Reduces waste

Vertical bucklefolder

Outline 

The Kluge vertical bucklefolder is a patented design that prevents crows feet on thick stocks by maintaining a sheet path that does not force a sheet around a small diameter fold roller.

Thick stocks are not flexible enough to bend and follow the surface of small diameter fold rollers. As a result, the sheet forms small creases where it was not able to form itself to the surface of the standard fold roller. This creasing is very visible on the finished product and many times will be unacceptable to a customer.

Customarily, stocks prone to crows-feet wrinkles were produced with the Kluge airgate module. Using the airgate module is a very effective way to avoid crows feet, but you are sacrificing production speed.

The Kluge vertical bucklefolder offers a production solution that eliminates crows feet while maintaining maximum operating speeds.

Guarding

Kluge has engineered a guarding addition to the vertical buckle fold plate feature for increased all round safety. This guarding system can be easily retrofitted (added) to existing folder/gluers.

The guarding system features include: Spring-lift assisting hinged frame that can be opened, providing the user with easy access to critical adjustment points for buckle folding; constructed from perforated sheet metal enabling a clear view of the buckle folder and production at all times; interlocking connections to main unit ensuring safety.

The vertical buckle folder guarding ensures all round safety when setting up and operating the unit.

Available for the OmniFold and UniFold automatic folder gluers.
