About the Fold

A fold is made when a sheet of paper is pushed through a pair of fold rollers by a fold-knife.
This is known as a right-angle fold because the fold is made 90° to the direction of sheet
travel. The machine has two fold-knives and can make up to two parallel folds on each
1
sheet. A cross sectional view of the fold mechanism is shown below.
