A system (200) for making a sheet of paper into a folded article is disclosed that includes multiple folding units (214, 218, 220, 226) and a turn unit (224) for changing the travel path of the folded article. At least one of the folding units creates a fold in the folded article in a direction that is perpendicular to a fold created by another one of the folding units. The turn unit alters the travel direction of the folded article so that downstream folding units can be arranged in a manner that saves floor space. Also disclosed herein is a method of folding a sheet of paper that includes conveying the sheet of paper along perpendicular travel paths (P8, P9) after the sheet of paper has been folded. |
