Description
The MEKABIND™ is a reliable and affordable double-fan entry-level adhesive binder.
A self-adjusting automatic machine, the MEKABIND™ is capable of processing paperbacks, books, serials and tabloids from 1/8″ (3mm) to 3-1/2″ (90 mm) in thickness with no make-ready or set-up time whatsoever. The MEKABIND™ is the ideal machine for the small binder or the in-house repair binder.
Operational safety of the MEKABIND™ is ensured by minimal clamping force during placement of the book block between clamps prior to the concurrent activation of two anti tie-down switches.
