Binding On Demand
Folding, Stitching and Cutting
ISP Stitching & Bindery Products had its AutoBook bookletmaker on display. It automatically folds and staples collated sets of up to 15 sheets of 20-lb. bond. Users choose one of six preset sizes or program up to six additional sizes. Paper size changes are quick.
MBO showed its DIGI-Finisher, which combines buckle folding and plow folding in one unit. Comprising a B-21 folder and a Hohner saddle stitcher, the DIGI-Finisher folds, collates, stitches, covers and trims, producing a finished booklet. It can be used for digital as well as for offset printed products, even within the same job. A barcode control and monitoring system allows the production of individualized brochures.
