Fastbind Pressomatic Hardcover Groove Press

The Fastbind Presso™ introduces a new standard in hardcover book finishing. This semi-automatic thermal groove press is engineered to produce deep, smooth, and perfectly aligned grooves that dramatically enhance the appearance and durability of hard cover books. By applying constant pressure and controlled heat, the Presso™ helps operators position the book block into the cover quickly, accurately, and consistently—making it an ideal companion to the Fastbind Casing-In Sheet.

With adjustable temperature and groove positioning, the Presso™ accommodates a wide range of cover materials and spine thicknesses. It supports hard cover books up to 1.7" (40 mm) thick with spine lengths up to 16.8", and features an adjustable spacer for fast setup when switching between different book formats.

The compact, tabletop design fits seamlessly into any on-demand publishing, print-on-demand, or short-run bookbinding operation. Operation is fast, quiet, and safe—simply insert the book, press a button, and the Presso™ automatically creates premium grooves on both sides in just seconds. With minimal maintenance required, the Fastbind Presso™ delivers professional results with maximum efficiency.
