Heidelberg TA 52 Folding Machine

Tech-ni-FoldHeidelberg

Each job you run comes with its own specific problems, and more often than not the culprit is found on the tooling shafts. The standard finishing tools supplied with your machine aren’t accurate, versatile or delicate enough for the results you — and your customers — expect. At Technifold we design and build bespoke, retro-fit premium finishing tools to solve both common and complex finishing problems.

Your TA 52, finished properly.

Proven in print rooms worldwide

Witherby's have purchased a full range of Tech-ni-Fold products over the years and I can honestly say they have paid for themselves many times over. The quality of the product and the results we have achieved on folders and Muller lines have been superb. I honestly cannot recommend these products highly enough.

James Green · Witherby & Co Ltd

This is the first thing I've ever found that lives up to its billing 100%. I recently bought one to try — and now I have nine!

Doug Rosen · Pearl Pressman

We have just completed our second job with the Micro-Perforator and have already recovered the cost we paid for it. Now we can complete work quicker, with superior results than previously, and with a lot more control.

Phil Fredericks · Wood Mitchell Printers

We purchased the Tri-creaser Easy Fit in August and it has only taken us four weeks to recover our investment. Now that we know the system works so well we estimate that it may save us £20,000 in the next 12 months. We are looking to place an order for another three units in the next two months.
