Overview

The AFC-746F B1 PFF configuration targets large-format commercial folding with pallet feeding for longer runs. Automated setup reduces make-ready on complex fold patterns versus manual buckle folders.

Compare with standard AFC-746F and AFV air-feed models when stock coating or sheet size is the failure point. Multi-brand options also live under paper folders.

B1 Pallet-Feed Folder Intelligent automation for ultimate usability.

Built by Horizon International in Japan. North American distribution through Standard Finishing Systems. Sold, installed, and serviced in Michigan and the Great Lakes by Mid-State Litho.

Key features

  • B1 / large-sheet production folder class
