Maine MBO Man “Folding 2 Up, “Split Guide Not Required” I am operating a brand new MBO T-800 Automatik Navigator and used MBO BA-700 Palamides Automatic Paper Bander. Folding inserts two up and processing the final folds in the right angle without a “split guide”! The job is arranged to have a 1-1/4 inch gutter trim. When this amount is slit, this gives me the gap I need to process for the final two folds. Further more I have a paper bander in-line. Have quite an operation going on here. Using two H2O/alcohol wet scoring units, pressing unit, and automatic paper bander. When they come out it’s like handling a brick. Nice high quality folding and very flat. 40# paper is a very light stock to deal with. It takes all the little tips and tricks to do a great makeready. The end result to can really pump out the work. The first unit is at about 9500 +/- per hour and at the delivery it is 18500 +/- per hour. By having the first unit folding at a slower rate your first fold and slitting is really nice. Even on this 40# stock. Now your final two folds will look even better. Overall on a large run you will save time on cutting and folding!
