Introduction to Minicoil & Miniwire Binding Machines
Not all binding projects require heavy-duty machinery. The Minicoil and Miniwire are specially crafted for those low-volume simple bookbinding tasks, giving you a practical solution without the fuss.

The Coverbind Miniwire works with 3:1 pitch wire-o, a metal binding spine that looks professional and has neat, perfect registration.
Binding Machine Features
The Minicoil stands out for its efficient coil punching that makes the initial binding steps straightforward and hassle-free. Once you’ve punched your pages, the electric inserter seamlessly and precisely binds your documents with the colored coil of your choice. This machine’s user-friendly design allows even the newest of users to achieve professional results with minimal effort.
The Miniwire is just as easy to use, but works with 3:1 pitch wire bindings instead. It punches up to 10 sheets at a time and includes a wire closer so you can finish your books. Its intuitive design means you spend less time fumbling with settings and more time making those perfectly bound materials.
Both machines prioritize user experience, making binding a breeze.
