So the in-plant recently upgraded to a 12-station flat-sheet Setmaster Series 3 Compact collator with a Series 3 bookletmaker. It has made a world of difference. In the past, folding, collating and stitching were done separately; now they’re all part of one smooth process.
“My staff can set up the [machine] to do a book, and they’re pumping them out a whole lot quicker than they were when they were doing it by hand,” Mitchell says. The collator is rated for 2,800 cycles per hour.
