The Morgana Digifold series has become almost the de facto standard for folding creasing and even perforating digitally printed sheets. Now, the 4th generation version is here from Print&Pack and earns a Technology Hot Pick for sheer automation and usefulness.
Folding and creasing digitally printed sheets is an art in itself in order to avoid toner cracking and unsightly white flakey spines. Morgana carved out a fine reputation for solving this problem with the original DigiFold device, which became like a familiar pair of favourite slippers in the majority of copy and digital print shops.
The Digifold was never a product looking for a market, the problem was there and Morgana solved it efficiently. Now, the 4th Generation Digifold Pro 385 from Print&Pack is set to continue this fine tradition.
Upgrades include enhanced automation of set-up including setting of all feeder functions and fold roller settings. This is achieved on a new SmartScreen tough-panel control that stores up to 50 job programmes. A new, deeper pile feeder has been added, capable of paper piles up to 450mm deep. Shorter runs are made faster by a SmartStop table drop.
There is a new top-feed vacuum feeding drum that automatically changes between paper types and thicknesses and upgraded DynaCrease blade and matrix, guaranteed for the life of the machine.
Sheets up to 0.4mm thick can be folded or creased without cracking at up to 6,000 sph. Maximum sheet size is 385 x 700mm and, as expected, inline perforation is standard with cross-perf optional.
Used DigiFolds are always in demand because they last; the new 385 Pro 4G makes folding, creasing and perforating even more automated and deserves a Technology Hot Pick.
