Baumfolder 20-Series Right Angle 8-Page Folder

The Baumfolder 20-Series Right Angle 8-Page Folder is a floor-standing, pile-feed right-angle folder that adds a second folding station to the Baumfolder 20 platform, so a single pass can produce right-angle cross folds, roll folds, and accordion folds. It is built for commercial print shops, binderies, and direct-mail operations running higher volumes than the 714 tabletop line. This 8-page folder handles sheets up to 20.5 inches at production speed and pairs a first parallel-fold station with a right-angle second station for finished 8-page signatures. As a pile-feed paper folder, it keeps an operator loading stock continuously instead of hand-feeding, which is what separates the 20-Series floor folders from smaller tabletop units. Micro-adjustment fold plates, combination folding rollers, and paperless roller gapsets make setup repeatable across mailers, brochures, manuals, and catalog work. Mid-State Litho is an authorized Baumfolder dealer, so every 20-Series folder ships with delivery, installation, and operator training, backed by factory-trained service across Michigan and the Great Lakes region.

About Baumfolder

Baumfolder is a long-running U.S. builder of pile-feed and tabletop paper folders for commercial print and bindery work. Mid-State Litho carries the active Baumfolder range and matches the machine to your feed type and fold complexity.

Choosing a Baumfolder: tabletop vs. floor pile-feed

The first decision is tabletop versus floor pile-feed. The 714 tabletop series - including the Baum 714XA AutoFold - suits lighter, quick-turn folding. The 20-Series floor folders step up to continuous pile feeding for higher volumes. Within the 20-Series, match the station configuration to the fold you run: the Baum 20 PFF is the pile-feed base for parallel folds; this page (the 20 Right Angle 8-Page, EQ-1306) adds a right-angle second station for finished 8-page signatures; the Baumfolder 20 INF is the inline configuration; and the Baum 20-3 16-Page 3rd Station adds a third station for 16-page work.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the Baumfolder 20 Right Angle 8-Page folder do?
It adds a right-angle second station to the Baumfolder 20 platform so a single pass can produce right-angle cross folds, roll folds, and accordion folds for finished 8-page signatures.

Is this a floor folder or a tabletop folder?
It is a floor-standing, pile-feed 20-Series folder built for higher-volume commercial work, a step up from the 714 tabletop line.

How is stock fed into the machine?
It is a pile-feed folder, so an operator loads a pile of stock and the machine feeds continuously rather than being hand-fed sheet by sheet.

How does the 20 Right Angle 8-Page differ from the 20 PFF and 20 INF?
The 20 PFF is the pile-feed base for parallel folds, this 20 Right Angle model adds a right-angle 2nd station for 8-page folds, and the 20 INF is the inline configuration. The right one depends on your fold pattern and workflow.
