BAUM Gives Tabletop Folders a Turbo Boost
BAUM has greatly improved the feeding systems on its manual and automated tabletop folding machines. This exciting redesign involves a new “Turbo” suction wheel that provides superior feeding capabilities for both the Ultrafold 714XLT Air Feed and Flexifold automated tabletop models.
The new Turbo Wheel technology results in being able to feed a higher lift of paper at a reduced vacuum requirement from the pump, saving energy and allowing the operator to load the table fuller for increased productivity.
