Abstract
An setup folding machine with at least two folding stations (F1, F2), which are formed by a pair of folding rollers (W1/W2; W2/W3) each. An intake device is provided including two feed rollers (T1, T2), which determines the speed of feed of the material to be folded, the intake device is located in a feed web (4) moving past the first folding station (F1). A enclosure feed mechanism is positioned directed toward the first folding station (F1), arranged behind the intake device. In order for an enclosure to be able to be optionally inserted into the first or second fold, the first folding station (F1) is associated with a knife-like deflecting member (6), which can be moved to the first folding station (F1) while the material is being deflected at the same time to form a fold, and can be actuated individually for each folding process by an electronic control device (21). An electromagnetcontrollable sheet deflector acting as a second deflecting member (26) is arranged directly in front of the folding pocket (25) located between the first folding station and the second folding station (F2), and the second deflecting member (26) can be moved from its resting position to the second folding station (F2) after the material to be folded has entered the folding pocket (25), while the material to be folded (43, 55) is deflected at the same time to form a fold.
