Combination Buckle Plates
Combination buckle plates make it much easier to operate
folders. It takes only a few seconds to turn the paper stop into
the sheet deflector or vice versa, simply by turning the setting
knob on top of the buckle plate. This not only significantly
reduces makeready times during frequent format changes but also
eliminates the need for manual labor. Combination buckle plates
remain in the folder at all times, thereby minimizing the risk of
damage.
Motorized Combination Buckle Plates
A motor-driven combination buckle plate, also used with
the TH/KH generation of machines, improves things even further. In
this version, two servo motors and spindles change the position and
angle of the sheet stop. It also features automatic length
compensation. The sheet stops are absolutely parallel, both when
acting as deflectors and for starting a new job. There is a global
adjustment feature for all buckle plates at once, and each plate
can also be individually corrected. The motorized combination
buckle plate permits extremely fast make-ready with very easy,
convenient handling. The sheet-stop angle is automatically set in
parallel position, which takes work off the operator's hands
and reduces the risk of mistakes.
