Integrated Bindery Systems
The 1-clamp PB-600B system produces high quality books up to 60mm thick at speeds up to 400 books/hour. Book blocks may be produced by the IBIS Smart-binder which can then be manually fed into the clamp, or loaded into a multi-pocket automatic book-block feeder.
The 5-clamp PB-1500W perfect binder produces high quality books up to 70mm thick at speeds up to 1500 books/hour. The Smart-binder can deliver folded signatures (with loose sheets or sheets glued together on the spine fold) which are then stacked on top of each other to form ‘book blocks’. The signature may optionally be glue tacked to each other to ensure book block stability when they are then loaded manually, or automatically, into the PB-1500W clamps. Alternatively the PB-1500W can be fed manually or automatically from sheet piles coming from a web cutter/stacker.
The Sprint-binder PB-600B system produces high quality books up to 60mm thick (when hand fed book-blocks off-line, at an operating speed up to about 400 books/hour).
