Graph Expo A Pleasant Surprise

The highlight at Powis Parker's booth was the Fastback Model 15xs, a desktop binding machine that can handle up to 350 sheets at a time. The Fastback uses what Powis Parker calls "Smart Strip technology" to hold the sheets in place. Pages can withstand up to 50 lbs. of pull.

The Rosback 4x4 Strike Perforating System is the company's latest offering. The strike heads are individually controlled and the device boasts strike patterns with surface speeds up to 24,000 feet per hour. It can run one to four lines of perf, slits or scores, and programmed strike patterns can be stored for future jobs.
