Folders and Finishers
Working with large format doesn’t stop at the printing: using dedicated or in-built folders and finishers is essential to maintain quality output.
The Estefold 2400 – is the perfect high-speed precision folder, capable of handling 4-6m lengths. With this system, you can immediately pick up neatly fanfolded colour and monochrome drawings and extra-long plots from the printer. As the prints are already fan folded, highly paid staff such as engineers and architects, do not have to waste their time on folding the drawings.
