New MBO K80 launches at Baumann Label and Finishing Days

Print Solutions

German folder manufacturer MBO has launched the new MBO K80 combi folding machine, showcased to the public for the first time at the Baumann Label and Finishing Days this week. The K80 fits perfectly into the new product range of MBO combi folding machines for the 70 x 100 cm size range. At maximum output of 230 metres per minute, it closes the gap between the manual K70 and the K8RS.

The K80 is ideal for high precision, high performance production of signatures, flyers and other similar products in medium industrial print run lengths. It runs at speeds of up to 230 metres per minute, and offers a comprehensive range of standard equipment and multiple automation options.

Stuart Bamford, national post-press sales manager, says: ‘The K80 not only uses proven, reliable technology but they have added a higher level of automation, shorter make readies, added the latest M1 control unit as standard and at the price point its speed and quality of fold is perfect for UK commercial printers in the B1 sector.’

To fulfil different production requirements and to add more automation, customers can choose between buckle plates and sheet deflectors in the parallel fold and cross fold, fold rollers in the parallel fold, cross fold and three fold and slitter shafts in the cross fold and three fold.
