    Great video. I ran many types of bindery equipment in my 40+ years in the industry. It still boggles the mind that these things can run 50,000 sheets of paper in an hour and fold them extremely accurately at super high speed. Thanks for sharing. Nice work.

      I've also seen the folding machine for paper airplanes before. As far as I remember it was very big and made out of Lego. I still have a few ideas. But it takes a lot of time to do all of this.

    Could this mechanism be made a lot smaller? To fold little 3.5x5cm pieces of paper?

    • @FraensEngineering
      @FraensEngineering  2 роки тому

      Theoretically, that would of course be possible. However, you would have to build very small parts. I could imagine that this would be possible with a lathe made of metal parts. I have already built some steam engines (-> video on my channel). Here I had to build very small parts.
      I think the idea of building such a small folding machine.

  • @nater3796
    @nater3796 Рік тому

    That's awesome! How do you control the rollers from trying to turn/misalign the pages? I know on the big ones they calibrate the gap to create a precise fold but yours looks like it did a pretty good job without all that... or did you have a lot of trial and error to achieve a descent fold? I only ask because I have pondered doing one of these myself and I'm so glad to see you accomplished it!

    • @FraensEngineering
      @FraensEngineering  Рік тому

      Hi, I don't understand exactly what you mean. I had to try a few things with the angle of the guides between the rollers. The separation of the sheets is also problematic so that only one sheet is fed at a time. I have already had a few failed attempts. Basically, however, the machine did not work so badly. Like all my machines, this one is a prototype. You could certainly still improve some things.

  • @niklasbartsch
    @niklasbartsch 2 роки тому

    That is so awesome. How do you manage to only get one page from the stack?
    Where did you learn this? I’m trying to build a machine which stacks 4 different pages from 4 different stacks.

    • @FraensEngineering
      @FraensEngineering  2 роки тому +1

      Trial and error is the key word. At the time, I found a PDF on the Internet where the basics for separating sheets were well described. Then I looked at several printers and tried out some tests. The rubber pad on the bottom of the stick is important. This must be somewhat slanted. The contact pressure of the upper trigger rollers is also very important. It is a relatively simple solution. However, I must admit that not always only one sheet is pulled off. From time to time, it also catches several.
