Machine Description
The Formax FD 346 Touchscreen Office Folder delivers fast, dependable folding performance in a compact design suited for professional and office environments. Built to streamline everyday paper handling, it folds up to 15,500 sheets per hour and accommodates paper sizes from 3.5” x 5” to 12.25” x 18”. This flexibility makes it a practical choice for a wide range of applications including mailers, bulletins, invoices, and brochures.
Operation is simple through the full-color touchscreen interface, which uses intuitive symbols instead of text, making setup quick and accessible to any user. Six common folds—C, V, Z, Gate, Fold Out, and Double Parallel—are clearly marked on the fold plates for fast adjustments. Fine-tuning knobs at each plate end allow users to achieve precise, professional folds every time. For increased efficiency, the AutoBatch™ feature can be programmed to process a set number of sheets with pauses between batches, ideal for organized output.
The FD 346’s drop-in three-roller feed system ensures consistent paper feeding, while self-centering side guides simplify alignment. Once loaded, the 500-sheet hopper allows operators to step away while the folder processes documents. Folded sheets are neatly stacked on the patented telescoping conveyor, which adjusts to accommodate large or small batches. Optional accessories, such as the Multi-Sheet Feeder, expand functionality by allowing up to four stapled or unstapled sheets to be folded at once.
With the ability to handle both standard and custom fold jobs—including cross-folding in two passes—the FD 346 offers versatility for offices that manage varied document types. Its durable construction, safety certifications, and simple maintenance features make it a dependable long-term solution.
The Formax FD 346 is recommended for schools, churches, and small businesses that need an efficient, easy-to-use folder with advanced controls and strong productivity. Call us toll free at 855-880-7500 with any questions regarding this equipment. We want you completely satisfied with your purchase, which is why we include our Saddle Point Systems One Year Local Warranty for all Bay Area customers.

Our San Francisco Bay Area customers can extend their service coverage to two years by purchasing our Saddle Point Systems Extended Performance Guarantee for their FD 346 for $395. In other words, you're paying for a one year service agreement and getting two years of complete coverage.

Simply give us a call and one of our technicians will come to your company, usually by the next business day, and service your machine at no additional charge.
After purchasing the Extended Annual Performance Guarantee, we'll e-mail you our Formax FD 346 Service Agreement PDF for you to fill out.

Annual service agreements must be purchased within 30 days of the original invoice date of your folder and are not valid unless signed and on file with us.
