Abstract (en)

[origin: JPH03106755A] PURPOSE: To form a plurality of folds in a sheet material at high speed by providing a driving means for continuously moving the sheet material through folding means without stopping during formation of first, second and third folds on first, second and third folding means. CONSTITUTION: A fold 32 extending along the path of movement of a sheet material is formed by a first folder assembly 72. Next, a fold 34 extending in the direction perpendicular to the moving direction of the sheet material is formed by a second folder assembly 78. Finally, a fold 36 extending along the path of movement of the sheet material is formed by a third folder assembly. While the sheet material is folded by the folder assemblies 72, 78 and 86, the sheet material is continuously moved by a driving means through the folder assemblies 72, 78, 86 without being stopped.
