Product Details

  • Auto Clamp. The clamp adjusts automatically between two sheets and 2.25 inches. Both the clamp and nipper are pneumatic, run by the included silent compressor.
  • Roughing Blade. The unique roughing blade includes a serrated edge which can also hold up to six notching pins. This allows for maximum glue penetration and book strength.
  • Side Gluing. The Digibinder side glues the rear of the spine by use of a side gluing pin. The book is then nipped in such a way that glue is forced into the front of the book creating a line of side glue there as well.
  • Twin Glue Rollers. Two glue rollers saturate the spine with glue. A third metering roller smooths out the glue to the desired thickness.
  • Nipper Control. The distance that the nipper travels can be set to produce more square backed books. The dwell time can be set up to 3 seconds. The nipper height can also be adjusted.

Spill associates presents the Sterling Digibinder Tabletop Perfect Binder. As you can see the machine is totally self-adjusting, goes to from thin books to thick books without any adjusting.

It rubs the notches, applies the glue leathers the glue and nips the book at the desired thickness. Here we are binding about four books per minute or two hundred and forty books per hour. The Digibinder employs a unique roughing blade that not only notches but roughs the entire spine for gluing. This way the glues stays same throughout the entire background of the book increasing its strength. Twin glue rollers ensures full and even coverage of the spine. A metering roller is included to smooth out the glue applied to the background. The nipper is strong enough to bind most books without creasing the cover.

In addition to binding paper bag books the machine will also bind pads.
