Key to the Morgana DocuFold's design criteria was a machine with a high degree of automation. Operation is therefore simplicity itself, because the DocuFold recognises the sheet size and automatically adjusts the fold plates and delivery rollers electronically.

The fold rollers will also compensate for most types of fold or paper weight without the need for adjustment, further enhancing the ease of use. Built in anti-static brushes assist in the discharge of statically charged print material, one of the most troublesome problems faced by document finishers today.

To control curled paper, another potential difficulty, the pressure suction chamber which is built into the feed table, gently pulls down each sheet as it is being fed into the feed rollers. For fuss-free, no jam operation the Morgana DocuFold is unrivalled. A simple by-pass facility enables heavier cover stocks to be folded and delivered without passing through all the fold rollers. This by pass facility stacks the cover stock flat without curl into the catch tray or an optional belt stacker.

For perforating and scoring, patented plug-in technology enables the operator to quickly and easily set the perforation/scoring unit on the bench prior to use.

A user friendly control panel enables adjustments to 0.003" if the fold plates or delivery roller needs to be moved. Within this control panel are a counter and batching facility which are standard features. A further feature of the sophisticated control system is the ability to memorise and store often repeated jobs which can then be retrieved within seconds. The DocuFold has been designed to handle work both from Litho and digital print engines. A powerful compressor will feed a wide range of stocks including coated stock. The pulsed feed action combined with the register system ensures a high degree of folding accuracy and the 'overlap' detector ensures fold integrity.

Completed work is delivered back to the loading position via a long delivery belt stacker ensuring the DocuFold’s footprint is as small as possible. Automation even extends to the delivery roller which moves electronically to the optimum position for the sheet size or fold. An operator can easily load or off-load the machine from the same standing position.

The fold rollers are extremely durable and have the ability to handle a wide variety of stock without adjustment. Not affected by paper dust, their unique composite material will positively grip high gloss papers or work from digital print engines. The patented, single pull-out cassette roller system allows rapid access for easy removal and replacement by non-skilled operators in less than 5 minutes keeping maintenance costs to a minimum.
As you would expect from such advanced electronic technology, a total counter with variable batching facility is standard equipment.
