From time-to-time we are asked how productive
the Smart-binder is in real production use.
We recently received news from a Financial
printer in the USA who recorded their best ever year with
216 million letter size pages through a single Smart-binder
in 2009. These figures show how the build quality, reliability
and productivity of the Smart-binder shines through even under
the heaviest of industrial loadings.
We constantly strive to improve the specification and performance
of our range of equipment, and we are pleased to announce
that following the completion of recent trials, the minimum
paper weight for the Smart-binder (without having to double-fold
each sheet ) has been reduced from 60 to 49 gsm (13lb bond).
This major improvement further extends the range and type
of work that can now be fed through the Smart-binder.
The
Smart-binder was once again "on parade" at IPEX
last month producing both saddle stitched and ISG cold-glued
booklets at 1200 pages (300 sheets) per minute, and up to
200 pages per book.
At those high speeds, you will understand that we produced
a large number of sample booklets, some of which were given
away on the stand, the remainder of which are now available
as samples for prospective customers.
If you would like to know how the IBIS Smart-binder can handle
your binding requirements, or would like to receive literature
and samples from the Smart-binder, please do not hesitate
to contact your local IBIS team member shown below.
