High Speed Fanfold Kraft Paper Folding Machine
Perforates and fanfolds kraft paper at 200 m per minute and stacks the pile for you
Product Overview
The SD-PF500B perforates, folds and stacks kraft paper in one automatic pass, producing the fanfolded pile that feeds void fill and wrapping dispensers in e-commerce fulfilment. It handles 40 gsm to 150 gsm paper up to 470 mm wide at 200 m per minute, with the perforation and folding length adjustable between 8 and 15 inch. The standard build is set at 11 inch and the module is changed to move to another length.
Key Benefits
- 200 m per minute on the 500 model, the fastest fanfold line in the Emerson range
- Automatic lifting unwinding stand means the parent roll is loaded without a separate hoist
- Perforation and folding length adjustable from 8 to 15 inch, so one machine serves several dispenser formats
- Conveyor stacking delivers a square pile ready to band and palletise
What This Machine Fixes
- Imported fanfold stacks arrive with long lead times and freight cost on mostly air
- Slower folders cannot keep a high volume fulfilment contract supplied
- Loading heavy parent reels by hand is slow and a safety exposure
Who Buys It
- Packaging converters supplying fanfold kraft to fulfilment operations
- Distributors who currently import finished fanfold stacks
- Paper mills adding a converting step close to the customer
Where The Output Is Used
- Producing fanfolded kraft for void fill dispensers in e-commerce fulfilment centres
- Converting parent reels into dispenser-ready stacks for packaging distributors
- Supplying wrapping paper stacks to third party logistics operators
- Running several perforation lengths for different customer dispensers

Quality Control
- Perforation tear strength checked at the start of each roll
- Fold length measured against the set module before the run
- Stack squareness checked on the conveyor discharge
Use Guide
- Confirm the folding module matches the perforation length before loading paper
- Let the automatic lifting system take the parent roll rather than lifting by hand
- Run the first metres slowly to confirm the perforation tears cleanly
- Band the stack on the conveyor before it is moved to the pallet
How It Compares With The Alternatives
Compared with Fanfold Kraft Paper Folding Machine EM-PF500A
The EM-PF500A runs the same 470 mm width at 90 m per minute with a manual unwinding stand and no perforation length adjustment. It is the entry machine where volume does not justify 200 m per minute.
Compared with Model 800 high speed folder
The 800 build takes 780 mm paper at 150 m per minute on a heavier 2500 kg frame. Choose it when the dispenser format is wider rather than faster.

200 m per minute. The 800 model on the same platform runs at 150 m per minute.
Can we change the fold length ourselves?
Fold and perforation length is adjustable between 8 and 15 inch, and the module has to be changed to move between lengths. Machines ship set at the standard 11 inch unless another length is specified.
What paper weight does it take?
40 gsm to 150 gsm, at up to 470 mm wide on the 500 model.
How is the parent roll loaded?
The unwinding stand has an automatic lifting system and takes rolls up to 1200 mm diameter on a 3 inch inflatable air shaft.
What controls are fitted?
Inverter and PLC with a Weinview touch screen.
