Features and Benefits
| Feature | CPB1 | CPB2SG | Benefit |
|---|---|---|---|
| Max Speed | Up to 360 books/hour | Up to 360 books/hour | Operating at an actual maximum speed of 10-200 books per hour, higher production rates can be obtained with additional operators. This feature cannot be done by other competitive machines as they are not designed for multiple operators. |
| Max Book Thickness | 2.25" | 2.25" | |
| Max Cover Size | 13.4" x 30.75" | 13.4" x 30.75" | |
| Book Block Size (Max) | 12.5" spine x 8.7" | 12.5" spine x 8.7" | (Actual unbound book height can be higher, call for info) |
| Book Block Size (Min) | 4" spine x 3-3/4" | 4" spine x 3-3/4" | |
| Clamp | Automatic/Pneumatic | Automatic/Pneumatic | |
| Roughing/Milling Blade | Roughing Blade and 4 Notching Pins | Milling and 2 Heavy Duty Notching Pins | Adding strength to the spine is Roughing/Milling Blade. The CPB2SG is equipped with milling and heavy-duty notching pins to give the spine more surface area for the glue to settle on. This is very important in binding coated paper and other difficult-to-bind paper stocks. |
| Glue Rollers | 2 Glue, 1 Metering | 2 Glue, 1 Metering, Side Glue Tank | Ensure a stronger bond with Glue Rollers. The CPB1 and CPB2SG all have 2 Glue Rollers and 1 Metering. Model CPB2SG have the Side Glue Tank. The side glue provides a stronger bond when the cover is nipped, this secures the cover to the book block on both the spine and front/back. To add, the side glue pot has built-in heat control. |
| Vacuum Waste Removal System | No | Yes | Keep the workplace clean and tidy with the Vacuum Waste Removal System. The system gathers paper dust produced during the roughening and notching process. This prevents the accumulation of dust inside the machine and glue pot. Having a Vacuum Waste Removal System prevents issues and damages that come with the prolonged accumulation of dust. |
| Safety Hood | No | Yes | An added feature protecting operators from accidents is the Safety Hood. The Safety Hood limits access over the glue pots, it is beneficial when the book block height goes beyond the opening of the safety cover. The Safety Hood is bypassed only when a safety key is inserted. Another benefit of the Safety Hood is it provides access to troubleshooting problems. A clamp safety sensor runs the entire length of the book clamp to ensure overall safety within the area. |
| Clamp Safety Sensor | Yes | Yes | Ensuring no accident happens within the book clamp is the Clamp Safety Sensor. The sensor runs the entire length of the area to make sure nothing comes into contact with the area during operation. |
| Book & Cover Sensors | Yes | Yes | Assisting the operator in making sure nothing is missed is the Book and Cover Sensor. The sensor reminds the operator that the binder is not ready to operate if the book or cover is missing. |
| Stand | Optional | Included | The CPB1 does not come with a stand. Having a stand provides optimal working height, proper balance, and stability. It also offers more space for the compressor and also storage for glue supply. |
| Air Compressor | Yes | Yes | Pneumatic control offers convenience and speed as its auto-adjust setup functions in handling book block size. |
| Fume Extractor | Yes | Yes | Protecting operators from smells and odors from the machine is the Fume Extractor. The Fume Extractor removes fumes from the glue pot and away from the operator. It can be hooked to an external vent to keep the workplace free from fumes. |
| Automatic Cover Creaser | No | No | An Automatic Cover Creaser reduces cracks in the fold site of digitally printed covers. This function preserves and elevates the final look of the book especially when the cover is pulled back. Having this feature eliminates the need to process on a separate creasing machine thus cutting costs. |
| Creasing Bar | No | No | Choose from a selection of creasing depths suited for every medium from the Creasing Bar. The Creasing Bar can be rotated in four directions to select the chosen creasing depth. |
| Automatic Cover Feeder | No | No | The Automatic Cover Feeder significantly elevates the workflow by taking advantage of embedded sensors to automatically feed the cover into position when it is ready for binding. The same sensors also detect double feeds and missing covers ensuring that each binding cycle is complete. |
