Baumbinder 1500

• Quick make-ready clamps
  The clamp is the heart of the bookbinding machine, carrying the book throughout the process. The heavy duty parallel clamps ensure an even pressure is applied along the sections to obtain a square book and prolong clamp life.
• Apine preparation for maximum strength
  The Baumbinder range uses the same spine preparation principles as Heidelberg's large, high-speed bookbinding machines. This means that a book produced on this simple machine is as durable as the catalogues and directories bound by the world's largest book-binders such as Quad Graphics, Maul Belser and ILTE.
• Even glue application
  A thin, even layer of glue, applied at the right temperature, is essential to produce a tight, flat spine free of wrinkles. The Baumbinder does this by applying molten glue along the spine with two applicator rollers revolving in the direction of book travel. A reverse roller returns the excess glue to the tank.
• Accurate cover application
  The Baumbinder 1500 is supplied with a top loading , bottom feeding cover feeder which uses a pin and airblast to separate the covers without marking. An optional air-float table is available for use with heavier stocks and to enable the cover feeder to be fully loaded, regardless of cover weight.
• Delivery options
  The Baumbinder 1500 has a two-part conveyor system which can be conveniently positioned to bring the finished books back to the operator at the handfeed station or positioned straight to allow easy, two-person operation.
