Punching and Binding
Renz showed the new Inline 360 high-speed punching and binding system. Book blocks are dropped onto the infeed (conveyor), punched, re-collated and fed automatically into the binder. The Inline is also capable of punching and binding calendar sets with either nail hole or calendar thumb cut. Once the DBW automatic cover turner is linked to the line it allows the device to automatically flip the back cover after the binding process, and it also spins every second book 180 degrees for level stacking.
