New from MBO: Efficiency Series in Half-size Segment

DÜSSELDORF, GERMANY—The foundation of MBO’s drupa theme – Speed up your business – was realized with the introduction of 2 (two) new buckle folding machines into MBO’s economical Efficiency series. Both a basic model and an automated version of the T 535 (21”) folder are now available with numerous options and customization.

T 535 Efficiency for high volumes

The new T 535 Efficiency buckle folding machine offers an attractive price-performance ratio and the high quality traditionally associated with MBO. The advantages of the Efficiency series translate to increased workflow in the half-size segment for printers, binderies and even book binders that process high volumes. Proven components including MS control, MBO’s exclusive maintenance-free belt drive and spiral rollers, and a new fold roller quick-release device that eliminates the time-consuming dismantling of numerous parts when the operator wishes to change rollers such as segmented fold rollers when gluing. The new F 535 pile feeder with electronic height control lowers the pile at nearly 4 times the speed of the previous model with improved regulation and adjustment of the pile.

T 535 EA - Efficiency Automatic for shorter set-up times

Fast makeready and simple operation rank the T 535 Efficiency Automatic buckle folder with the best price/performance in its class. T 535 EA is ideal for processing short runs and multiple changeovers that demand frequent machine resetting. The 15” color touchscreen is unique to this price class. With its Vario-Control it simplifies set-up with a very clear visual operator guide delivering maximum convenience and trouble-free folding.
