Description of the 1812 Martin Yale AutoFolder

The Martin Yale 1812 automatic, friction-fed paper folder is a smooth, efficient machine with such a simple design that anyone, from church volunteers to business professionals, can use it. To operate the 1812, all the user has to do is adjust the folding plates according to the convenient measurement chart located on the front of the machine, and then insert the paper.

The Martin Yale 1812 accepts a large range of paper sizes and weights making it an incredibly versatile paper folder. The 1812 can handle paper measuring from 2.5" x 5.2" to 12" x 18", and paper weights between 18lb bond and 90lb cover. The feed table is able to hold a maximum of 500 sheets of paper (20lb letter size bond) at once, and fold between 5,000 to 12,000 sheets per hour.

The Martin Yale 1812 AutoFolder has fold tables that are completely enclosed, for quieter production and better safety. The 1812 can produce 7 different folds: Letter, Half, Z-Fold, Double Parallel, Gate, Church, and Engineer. The fold plates are clearly and accurately marked, making it easy to adjust for the variety of fold options. The Martin Yale 1812 also features a variable speed option, which can be adjusted while the paper folder is running. Decreasing the speed can help avoid paper jams and reduce noise.
