Baum 714XLT-2C, 4C, 4Z and 8Z gluing systems

The Baum 714XLT gluing systems combine the Baum 714XLT Ultrafold air/vacuum feed folder with the GMS Microglue control and glue head system for compact self-mailer production. The folder handles the folding, the glue heads apply seams and dots in the same pass, and the combination takes the hand work out of self-mailer jobs while using less floor space than traditional self-mailer lines.

Key features

  • Half-fold, letter-fold, Z-fold, and double parallel-fold self-mailers
  • Folds up to 35,000 sheets per hour (8.5" x 11")
  • GMS HP Series glue heads apply precise glue lines and glue dots
  • Two perforation lines for tear-off sections
  • Sealed ball bearings, no lubrication schedule
  • Rack and pinion side guides hold sheet registration through the fold
  • Load and unload from the same end, which cuts operator movement and fatigue
  • Mounted on a rolling cart with built-in glue tanks and purge system for easy cleaning
  • Glue placement varies by model: edge gluing, interior panel dots, or multi-panel adhesion

Standard features

Folding: the air/vacuum bottom-feed Baum 714XLT folder runs coated and uncoated paper from 3" x 5" up to 14" x 20", with rack and pinion side guides and fold speeds up to 7,200 inches per minute.

Gluing: GMS HP Series glue heads carry an electric purge switch and a self-cleaning nozzle mechanism that keeps downtime short. The system runs a range of glue viscosities for different applications.

Perforation: two perforation lines are standard for tear-off sections; a third is available with the 8-page second-station right-angle folder.

Operation: touchscreen control with job memory. The mobile cart carries the glue tanks and purge system, and the machine runs quietly on standard power.
