PCT No. PCT/GB92/00125 Sec. 371 Date Oct. 6, 1992 Sec. 102(e) Date Oct. 6, 1992 PCT Filed Jan. 22, 1992 PCT Pub. No. WO92/12860 PCT Pub. Date Aug. 6, 1992.Apparatus for stitching and folding sheets of material, especially paper, comprising an in-feed unit, a wire-stitching unit, a sheet-folding unit and an out-feed conveyor. The sheets are maintained in a downward linear path from entry into the in-feed unit until initiation of the folding by a folding blade. Removal of the folded sheets is substantially perpendicular to the previous downward linear path. The sheets abut a first stop for the stitching, and abut a second stop for the folding. The in-feed unit and the wire-stitching unit are pivotable relative to the rest of the machine in the manner of a clam-shell. All units remain engaged with a main drive in both the closed and opened positions.
