Overview
The AFC-746F is a computerized suction-feed cross folder for shops that need fast changeover on complex fold patterns. A 10.4" color touchscreen selects common fold formats and sheet sizes; automated adjustments cover in-feed, roller gaps, buckle, and knife sections on equipped systems.
Typical structure is a multi-buckle plus knife configuration for right-angle work. Sheet size capability reaches into the B1 class on equipped feeders (confirm max size for your feeder option). Store jobs in memory for repeat work. Compare commercial folders on our paper folding machines hub.
