DTYFeeding and folding paper with air
A vacuum (suction) folding machine uses two air duties in tandem: vacuum on the feed drum or belt to lift and register the top sheet from the pile one at a time, and a puff of blown air to fan and separate the sheets so only one is picked. The vacuum is low-flow and moderate — enough to grip a sheet cleanly without pulling two — while the blow side needs a steady low-pressure supply at the separation nozzles. Because one machine wants both suction and pressure, a combined vacuum-and-pressure pump is the tidy answer; where the shop already runs a central vacuum, a small dry pump plus a side-channel blower for the blow air also works.
Yash YBVP vacuum-and-pressure pumps deliver both sides of the sheet-feed job from one oil-free unit, and single-stage blowers supply separation air where duties are split. Quiet, clean, ISO 9001:2015 and made in Faridabad — sized on sheets-per-minute and quoted in 24 hours.
SZESizing note
Size the vacuum on the grip area and feed speed, and the blow air on the number of separation nozzles; a small reservoir on each side steadies feed through fast cycles so double-sheeting is avoided.
Indicative only — final selection depends on your exact duty point, altitude and air temperature. Send the numbers and an engineer confirms the model.

FAQVacuum Pump for Paper Folding Machine — FAQs
- What pump does a suction paper folding machine need?
- It needs both vacuum and pressure — vacuum to grip and register each sheet on the feed drum, and blown air to fan the pile so it picks one at a time. A combined oil-free YBVP vacuum-and-pressure pump supplies both from a single unit, sized on sheets-per-minute.
- How do I stop double-sheeting on a vacuum feeder?
- Steady both air supplies with small reservoirs, set the separation blow air to fan the top few sheets, and keep the feed vacuum just firm enough to lift one sheet cleanly. A right-sized pump that recovers fast between picks keeps grip consistent at speed.
