(54)	Automatic machine for folding long sheets, particularly technical drawings

(57) This automatic machine for the zig-zag folding of long sheets, particularly technical drawings, creates alternate folds by the action of two oscillating creasing blades prior to a short fold-completing compressing action determined by inserting a vertically descending and alternately creased sheet, gripped and urged by two upper rollers, between two opposing pairs of presser rollers rotatable with predetermined reciprocating synchronous movement.
