B&R Moll’s Premier 36 Folder/Gluer System Runs Large-Format Print Media with Multiple Insertions

Warminster, pA – September 30, 2014 – B&R Moll, Inc., the industry’s leading supplier of folder/gluers and specialized bindery finishing equipment for printing and packaging facilities, has developed the Premier 36 System – a folder/gluer machine specifically designed to perform complex folding and gluing tasks on larger-format (36” wide) print media, including projects involving multiple inserts, pharmaceutical and credit card requirements.

The Premier 36 System folder/gluer incorporates many of the innovative folding and feeding mechanisms developed by B&R Moll, including segmented “Sure-Grip” fold rollers with automatic settings, and a main buckle fold plate with removable ribs and a stainless steel back plate to prevent marking and static build-up. Two movable tipper plates can be positioned anywhere on the extended in-feed table, and the air-pile feeder features dual suction air wheels to ensure a positive feed. The all belt-driven feed system is more than six feet long, consisting of two separate stage belts (2” and 3” wide) with removable pans and a standard Dial-A-Stack unit.

“Our Premier 36 System enables printers to automate complex folding and gluing processes on large-format pieces with an in-line capability,” said Kevin Moll, regional sales manager for B&R Moll, Inc. “Previously, many of these types of jobs could only be accomplished by hand, so the Premier 36 folder/gluer represents a real efficiency boost for finishing shops.”

The Moll Premier 36 System handles material ranging from 70lb. cover to 28pt. stocks (140-500g/m²) in sizes ranging from 5.5 x 5.5 inches (139 x 139mm) up to 36 x 36 inches (920mm x 920mm).  Maximum linear speed is 425ft/min (130m/min).  The system is available for either 220V 3-phase, 60A/60Hz or 400V 3-phase, 60A/50Hz power connections and a 90psi (0.7mPa) compressed air connection.

B&R Moll will showcase the Premier 36 System, and other folder/gluers in Booth #3218 at Graph Expo 2014, held at Chicago’s McCormick Place on September 28 – October 1.  A video of the company’s exhibit is available here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=acJDky8w0vk&feature=youtu.be
