The speedy t folder that Ryonet sells is not the same as the roq fold/packing solution. The roq version has never been sold in the United States but Ryonet will be showing the first one at iss long beach in Jan with that unit then going to a large shop in Vegas. The roq machine is a very innovative solution that allows only one operator to operate the entire line. The machine folds everything from t's, hoodies, jackets, pants, etc making it a really awesome option. I do not know pricing but I believe it's in the 75k range give or take. The speedy t folder and the roq folder is like comparing a Lamborghini to a huffy bike imo  ;) ;)

I stand corrected.   The FoldR is what I meant.  Not the RoqFold.

Being in Atlanta, when this subject came up at a clients in PA i said I would run by the Nedco plant and get some info.  Plant burned to the ground two weeks ago.  They are still in business but would be 120 days out on a new unit.  It would be in the $45K range to fold and bag t shirts through hoodies.  I heard that Roq has one and talked to Ryonet.  This thing is $11K to fold and ??? for a bagger.  Amscomatic also is in the mix but they are $80K for the same system.  My question... what justifies the drastic price difference.  Here is the Roq url.

Wow! The last time I checked we were around $25,000 for a folder that would do 1600 pieces per HR. Shows how much rices increase when quoted on the internet!

Rich will that price point fold and bag hoodies and long sleeves?  What is the wait time for a new unit?  I have a client in desperate need.
hoodies yes. Sleeves is a separate option called the LS350
