Prison Shop Upgrades Bindery
The Setmaster features missed- and double-sheet detection and it also checks the thickness of finished books for consistency.
Perhaps the greatest benefit of the new machine, though, is the part it plays in preparing inmates for employment once they’re released.
“We’re able to train an inmate on a piece of equipment that could help them to transition into the free society,” Mitchell says. “They’ll have working knowledge of a large bindery piece of equipment.”
