It has an attractive black design, that really focuses on simplicity.
It all starts by measure out the pages of your project using the color guides. The colored section that it fits into will then inform you what size of comb binding you’ll need. I have a pretty small book, and need a 1/4” spine.
Take the binding and place it behind the metal teeth on the machine. The orientation of the binding does matter. Now pull on the side lever just enough to open the binding. When it’s placed on correctly, the h ...

GBC CombBind C210e Electric Plastic Comb Binding Machine Product Review

Overview:

  • The C210e is a brand new, full featured electric plastic comb binding machine available from GBC.
  • It includes GBC's new guide right punching technology that is designed to help users quickly and easily align their documents in the punch so that they can eliminate costly mispunches .
  • The GBC C210e is designed for small and medium sized businesses that are looking to make plastic comb binding easier without spending a huge amount of money.

Strengths / Features:

  • The GBC C210e is an electric comb binding machine that is capable of punching up to 20 sheets of 20lb paper per lift. That is 25% greater capacity than the smaller C110e. Plus, all you need to do is put the pages into the machine and press the button. Punching doesn't get much easier than that.
  • The CombBind C210e includes GBC's new Guide Right punching technology. On this machine, that simply means that the feed-tray slides back and forth helping you to quickly and easily center your documents for punching. The guide right technology is designed to work with both letter sized sheets and oversize covers.
  • This machine includes a heavy duty metal plastic comb opener that is capable of finishing documents that are up to 425 sheets thick. You can use plastic comb binding spines that are as small as 1/4" and as large as 2" in diameter with the C210e. The comb opener is operated using a small easy to grip handle that is located on the side of the machine.

Weaknesses / Limitations:

  • The C210e is ideal for organizations that only need to bind letter sized documents. The guide right technology makes punching letter size and oversize documents simple. However, for organizations that need to bind landscape documents, half letter sized sheets or A4 paper, the C210e will not work. The layout of the guide right punching technology and lack of disengageable dies prevents this machine from being used with custom sheet sizes.
  • The C210e does not have an adjustable depth of punch margin control. Plastic comb binding machines use margin controls to allow users to adjust the distance of the holes from the edge of the paper. For small sized books the holes should be closer to the edge of the paper so that the pages turn freely. For larger sized books, the holes should be further from the edge to provide added strength and to prevent pages from tearing out of the document.
  • Although the C210e is capable of punching up to 20 sheets of 20lb bond paper at a time, it should only be used to punch up to 2 clear covers or plastic covers at a time. Punching more than 2 clear covers at a time using this machine can cause your punching dies to become dull or can ruin the punching motor inside the machine.
  • Although some users prefer the punching button on the c210e, it would be nice if this machine included a foot pedal punch activation switch. A foot pedal would allow users to hold your document with both hands during the punching process helping you to improve binding productivity.
  • For inexperienced users, the GuideRight technology on the C210e is helpful for making sure that the sheets are aligned properly in the punch. However, this technology is relatively new and unproven. It is most likely going to be fine for moderate usage. However, the sliding document tray may break if this machine is used heavily. Additionally, experienced users will most likely be able to punch documents faster on a machine that doesn't have the guideright tray.

Recommendation:

  • The C210e is ideal for small and medium sized companies that are looking for a medium duty electric comb binding machine.
  • With the ability to bind documents up to 425 sheets and punch up to 20 sheets per lift, the C210e is a great machine for an office that binds up to 100 documents per week.
  • However, larger users or or organizations that need to bind custom sized documents should consider a heavier duty binding punch with disengageable dies and heavier duty construction.

ZipBind spines are an editable type of comb spine. They zip open and closed by hand, or with the assistance of a ballpoint pen, so that you can quickly and easily add or remove pages from a bound document when you don't have access to a binding machine. ZipBind spines are 19-coil spines making them are compatible with all CombBind equipment.
