  • Page 44 On a buckle folder, the sheet is laid flat on a register table and then enters the fold pan assembly where it comes to a stop against the stationary fold plate stop. A series of buckles then forms throughout the sheet. The buckles whithin the fold pan are kept very small by the narrow channel design. The buckles at the end of the fold pan, however, will be larger.
  • Page 45 On the next page is a quick explanation of the basic theory of buckle folding. Although reasonable care has been taken to assure accuracy, Baumfolder Corporation does not assume any respon- sibility for any errors that might inadvertently be contained in this manual. When trying a new fold, it is always advisible to set up a test run to check for potential problems.
