Product Details
- VERSATILITY AND CONTROL: The Medalist handles stock from 41/2 x 61/2 to 141/2 x 201/2, including coated paper. Combination steel/rubber rollers (photo 1) and roller calipers deliver the tightest folds and offer superior control, especially on slick stocks. Air for lift and separation is produced by the regenerative blower; suction is created by the vacuum pump. This provides impressive sheet control for a wide range of stocks.
- OUTSTANDING PERFORMANCE: The Medalist folds up to 30,000 8-1⁄21/2 x 111/2 (28,000 A4) sheets per hour, with mark-free output. On the feeder, a fully adjustable metallic sheet separator helps eliminate double feeds. During folding, precision roller calipers hold roller gap based on paper thickness. At the delivery, a unique jam detector system stops the feeder before problems become significant.
- DESIGNED FOR CONVENIENCE: A flip-up swing deflector (photo 2) lets stock bypass the fold plate. The feed table (photo 3) swings up for easy access to the lower fold plate. Perfing and scoring shafts are very accessible. The control panel (photo 4) has a built-in total counter and is accessible from either side. For even greater operator convenience, an extended delivery option is available.
- HEAVY-DUTY CONSTRUCTION: The Medalist is built to last, and requires minimal maintenance. Rugged aluminum-alloy side frames, durable combination folding rollers, ultra-strong roll gears, heavy-duty slitter shafts, and vacuum feed help ensure long life and consistent accuracy. A transparent safety shield guards the paper exit area and meets strict CE safety standards.
