Bindery Innovations At PRINT 09
Spiel Associates launched the Sterling Digi–punch, which allows for punching up to 60,000 sheets per hour. It can punch sheets with covers or tabs intermixed, and features a variable pile lift to slow the machine down for difficult jobs. A touch screen offers automatic setup and changeovers. The screen prompts operators when to lubricate or sharpen the die. The machine can be run in reverse to eliminate jam ups. You can punch sheets from 51⁄2x51⁄2˝ to 13x12˝ for comb, coil and double loop wire. Also shown was the new Rilecart B-535, an automatic, double loop wire binder capable of binding books at a speed of 3,000/hour. It can bind books from 31⁄4x4˝ up to 12x121⁄2˝.
