AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies struggle to maintain high production speeds while processing substrates with varying properties with high quality, especially in bag-folding processes where paper of different thicknesses is prone to folding issues.
The design employs a folding roller frame with an inclined insertion well, combined with optional inserted folding bags and sheet deflectors, to optimize the sheet folding process by adjusting the offset of the folding rollers and the inclination of the insertion well.
It enables high-quality processing of substrates with different characteristics at high productivity, reduces problems in the folding process of flake-shaped sheets, and improves the folding effect.
