Adhesive Binders — Short and Sweet

Heidelberg Web's Universal binder line of binders run at up to 20,000 books per hour and feature independent hoppers and advanced control systems for extensive selective binding capabilities.

"Finding qualified operators is a critical issue in the pressroom and in the bindery," Norris says. "Therefore, we continue to emphasize automation and ease of use in our bindery technology. While we have made the capabilities of our Universal binders more advanced, we have also made these systems easier to operate. Heidelberg has continuously improved the control system architecture for its Universal binder family of perfect binders to make troubleshooting, expansion and integration of auxiliary equipment easier. We've also implemented an enhanced makeready system that allows on-the-fly adjustments."
