These folders are often referred to as air-powered paper folders. This method makes it possible to fold most types of paper. Most pneumatic paper folders include a built-in compressor. These folders can have as many as sixteen folding plates or several knife folds depending on the imposition, these are adjusted manually or electronically, depending on the machine. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Feeding_systems">Feeding systems</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Folding_machine&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section: Feeding systems"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>There are two types of feeding systems used by folders: pile and continuous. The first is flat pile, in which the paper is placed on a feeding table and each sheet is then transported into the machine by friction or an air-controlled suction-wheel. A variation of this is palletized feeding, in which an entire pallet full of paper may be placed on the feeding table. The second type is called "continuous"; this involves the sheets being skillfully "rolled-out" onto a belt, on a table or rollers. An <a href="/wiki/Electric_eye" title="Electric eye">electric eye</a> controls the belt speed, propelling the paper into the machine, then each sheet is individually pulled into the machine by an air-controlled suction-wheel. The sheets of paper will be separated by blowing air between them.<sup id="cite_ref-kipphan_1-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-kipphan-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Folder_inserters">Folder inserters</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Folding_machine&action=edit&section=7" title="Edit section: Folder inserters"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Folder inserters are designed for mailing bills, checks and other material.
