Details & specifications

The Baum 714XA AutoFold is an automated tabletop air-feed paper folder built for the digital print market. Its air and vacuum feed handles coated and mixed stocks that give friction feeders trouble, and APA (automatic product adjustment) sets the inverting head and infeed conveyor to a new sheet size from one touch on the PLC touchscreen.

Key features

  • APA automatic product adjustment: sets the inverting head and infeed conveyor to different sheet sizes from the control panel.
  • PLC color touchscreen with pictograph prompts for quick setup.
  • Air and vacuum feed using Baum turbo-wheel technology for consistent feeding of coated and mixed stocks.
  • Non-marking flip-deflector fold plates that prevent toner buildup and keep folds clean.
  • Batch counter with count-up or count-down.
  • Motorized delivery stacker with independent speed control.
  • Right-angle folding when paired with the Baum 714XLT 2nd station.
  • Jam detection sensors on input and output, plus diagnostic fault messages.
  • Sound covers standard, and a multi-language interface (English, Spanish, French, German).

The Baum tabletop folder range: air feed vs friction feed

Mid-State Litho carries the Baumfolder tabletop range on the Baumfolder page and the wider paper folders collection:

  • 714XLTF-2-P-1 ($11,200), friction feed
  • 714XLT UltraFold 1st station ($12,490), friction feed
  • 714H-8PG ($16,499), 8-page
  • 714XA ($19,800), air-feed AutoFold with APA

Choose a friction-feed model such as the 714XLT for uncoated stocks and a lower entry price. Step up to the air-feed 714XA for coated and mixed digital stocks and higher automation. The larger 20-Series pile-feed folders are quote-only.
