MBM 1800S Air-Feed Paper Folder
The MBM 1800S is a high-speed, air-feed folder designed for consistent, professional folding on digitally printed and coated stocks. A top-feed adjustable air suction system supports trouble-free feeding, while an ultrasonic double-feed sensor helps prevent misfeeds across a wide range of sheet types. One-touch memory keys and a touch control panel streamline repeat work, making the 1800S a strong fit for print production environments that need speed, accuracy, and clean stacked output.
Key Features
- Top-feed adjustable air suction system supports digitally printed, coated, and mixed stocks
- Ultrasonic double-feed sensor detects double feeds across white, black, printed, transparent, and mixed-color sheets
- Custom fold and setup recall with one-touch memory keys for repeat work
- Touch control panel includes 4-digit counter with batch and total functions
- Test button folds two sheets for inspection before running production quantities
- Automatic feed table helps maintain optimum feed pressure through a full stack
- Automatic conveyor belt and self-setting exit rollers support smooth ejection and neat stacking
- Removable folding roller, adjustable roller pressure, and feed angle adjustment dial for better control
- Skew and micro-adjustment dials help dial in fold accuracy
- All-metal construction supports durability in production environments
Why It Matters
Air-feed performance and double-feed detection help reduce wasted sheets and rework when folding coated or digitally printed stocks. Job memory, inspection folding, and consistent ejection/stacking support higher throughput with less operator intervention, especially on repeat mailers, inserts, and production runs.
