Details & specifications

The Formax FD 2056 is a high-volume pressure sealer for processing pressure-seal self-mailer forms, folding and sealing one-piece mailers such as checks, pay stubs, notices, and tax forms in a single pass. Mid-State Litho sells and supports the FD 2056 as an authorized Formax dealer, with installation, training, and supplies. Built for production mailrooms and print shops, the FD 2056 handles continuous high-throughput runs with quick fold-plate changeover for Z, C, V, and custom fold patterns. It ships freight; contact Mid-State Litho for current pricing, lead time, and a form compatibility check for your pressure-seal stock.

Formax pressure sealers and mailing at Mid-State Litho

Mid-State Litho is an authorized Formax dealer. The FD 2056 sits in the Formax FD 20-series pressure sealer family, alongside the desktop FD 2006, the step-up FD 2036, and the top-tier high-speed FD 2096. We sell, install, and service the full Formax pressure-seal line and stock compatible self-mailer supplies.

Where the FD 2056 fits

Use this guide to self-select the right Formax pressure sealer for your volume:

  • Formax FD 2006 - mid-volume desktop pressure sealer for lighter daily runs.
  • Formax FD 2036 - step-up production sealer for growing mail volumes.
  • Formax FD 2056 (this model) - high-volume production throughput for busy mailrooms.
  • Formax FD 2096 - top-tier high-speed inline pressure sealer for the heaviest production.

The FD 2056 targets the high-volume production tier. If your daily volume is lighter, the FD 2036 or FD 2006 fit better; for the highest speed, step up to the FD 2096.

Why buy from Mid-State Litho

Frequently asked questions

What does the Formax FD 2056 do?
It folds and pressure-seals one-piece self-mailer forms (checks, pay stubs, notices) in a single pass, eliminating envelopes for high-volume mailings.

What fold types does the FD 2056 support?
It handles Z, C, V, and custom folds via interchangeable fold plates, sized for common pressure-seal self-mailer layouts.

How is the FD 2056 different from the FD 2036?
The FD 2056 is a higher-volume production sealer with greater throughput and duty cycle than the FD 2036, for shops running larger daily mail volumes.
