If you’re in the business of crafting tiny, critical materials—like pharmaceutical inserts that need to fit perfectly into pill bottles, or commercial outserts that pack essential info into tight spaces—you know the struggle: finding a paper folding machine that’s precise enough for small formats, tough enough for high-grade stocks, and flexible enough to keep up with your ever-changing orders. Enter the SPEED T490 Series—a game-changing buckle folding machine that doesn’t just fold paper, but solves the unique headaches of pharmaceutical and commercial print production.
Let’s start with what makes this buckle folder a standout for pharmaceutical teams: precision. When you’re dealing with PI (Package Insert) work, where even a millimeter off can mean non-compliance or packaging jams, the SPEED T490 doesn’t mess around. Thanks to its 32mm diameter folding rollers and up to 20 fold plates, this pharmaceutical insert and outser system cranks out folds as tiny as 20mm—perfect for those ultra-compact inserts that need to hold vital dosage info or safety guidelines. And it’s not just about small sizes: with a max infeed sheet size of 490*1000mm, it handles larger formats too, making it a true all-rounder for mixed jobs.
But what really sets this paper folding machine apart is its ability to grow with your needs. Ever wished your folding equipment could adapt to glue applications, knife folds, or special delivery setups? The SPEED T490’s modular design makes it possible. This isn’t just a basic buckle folding machine—it’s a customizable workhorse that teams up with glue units, pressing units, and various delivery systems to create a folding setup that’s yours. Whether you’re adding a seal to pharmaceutical outserts or need crisp knife folds for marketing materials, this system bends (pun intended) to your workflow, not the other way around.
Let’s talk numbers—because performance matters. The SPEED T490 isn’t just precise; it’s fast. With a max production speed of 180m/min, it keeps up with high-volume runs, so you won’t be stuck waiting when deadlines loom. And when it comes to material versatility? It’s a champ. From lightweight 35gsm sheets to sturdier 200gsm stocks—common in pharmaceutical and commercial grade materials—this buckle folder handles them all without breaking a sweat. No more swapping machines for different paper weights; the T490 takes it all in stride.

Run lengths? No problem. Whether you’re tackling a small batch of specialty inserts or a massive continuous run of commercial outserts, this paper folding machine has your back with two feeder options: pile or continuous. The pile feeder handles stacked sheets for steady, reliable feeding, while the continuous feeder keeps the momentum going for those marathon production days. And with a max paper pile height of 750mm, you’ll spend less time reloading and more time hitting those production targets. 
For pharmaceutical operations where compliance and consistency are non-negotiable, the SPEED T490 checks all the boxes. It’s built to handle the strict standards of pharma-grade stocks, ensuring every fold is uniform, every insert is crisp, and every outser meets the quality your clients demand. And with specs like 3.5kW power and 380V three-phase voltage, it’s designed to integrate smoothly into your existing production line without causing disruptions. 
In a world where print jobs get more complex by the day—where one minute you’re folding tiny pharmaceutical inserts and the next you’re tackling large-format commercial pieces—the SPEED T490 Series isn’t just a buckle folding machine. It’s a solution that adapts, performs, and delivers results that keep your clients happy and your production line running like a well-oiled machine. So if you’re tired of paper folding machines that can’t keep up with your precision needs or flexibility demands, it’s time to meet your new favorite workhorse: the SPEED T490. Because when it comes to pharmaceutical inserts, outserts, and all things precision folding, this buckle folder doesn’t just fold paper—it folds challenges into opportunities.
