View product detailsSelect equipment around the finished sheet, required operation and line interfaces. Ask SPEED to confirm the host machine, integration method and standalone supply requirements for the selected equipment.
What this range is for
- Collect and stack folded sheets with a vertical delivery configuration.
- Specify independent and parallel knife equipment around the finished drawing and the required operation.
- Press folded leaflets or booklets where the finishing process requires flattening.
How to choose within this range
- 01 Check SD-X250 feeding size, finished format and thickness against the sample; confirm the required operation before choosing the module.
- 02 Choose the SD-XP300 when folded stacks need flattening; check working width and finished thickness.
- 03 Confirm line speed, air supply and inline interfaces with the upstream folder.
Folded product applications
Pharmaceutical leaflets
Folded to carton-insert size from 40–120 gsm pharma paper; the highest-volume pharmaceutical folding job.
Production considerations
Patient information leaflets must fit the carton while retaining readable multi-panel copy. Miniature sheet handling, repeatable fold position and counted delivery are the main production checks.
The T490 and T520 cover leaflet folding. Confirm the pattern on the actual stock, then specify any required knife, pressing, sealing and delivery modules against the finished sample and packaging process.
Pharmaceutical outserts
Deep-folded leaflets of 8, 12 or 16 panels that behave like a booklet and must lie flat for packing.
Production considerations
An outsert folds a larger information sheet into a compact, multi-panel piece for a carton. The finished stack must lie flat and feed consistently into packing equipment.
The folding platform and plate arrangement depend on the panel count and sheet. Review any knife operation and SD-XP300 pressing against the finished sample; sealing and delivery are specified with the required line configuration.
Packaging inserts
Leaflets and promotional inserts folded to carton size, packed by automatic equipment.
Production considerations
Carton inserts and promotional leaflets are folded to a finished size that downstream equipment can pick up consistently. Square edges and flat stacks may be needed for automatic packing.
Select the folding platform around the carton insert and printed stock. Review any knife or pressing step separately and confirm module envelopes and interfaces for the ordered line.

Pharmaceutical Leaflet Folding Machines
A patient information leaflet is the hardest folding job in print. The sheet is small — often 60 × 100 mm unfolded in the miniature end of the range — the paper is thin, the fold has to be square enough to feed a cartoning line, and the fold line must not crack the ink or the fibre. Get any of those
Solution · Outsert systemsPharmaceutical Outsert Folding Systems
An outsert is a leaflet folded deep enough — typically eight, twelve or sixteen panels — that it becomes a small booklet in its own right, usually wrapped around or packed with the primary container. The engineering problem is that every additional panel multiplies the error of the panels before it,
