Single-clamp perfect binder
mitabind – A short run binder and book block preparation line
The mitabind is a fully automatic single-clamp perfect binder designed especially for the production of high-quality hardcover book blocks and softcover books in single to short-runs. Thanks to the integration of an end-sheet feeder and backlining station, yet with a high degree of automation with simple format setup times, ease of operation and comparably low complexity and space requirements, it achieves a unique position especially in the hardcover book-on-demand sector in the lower speed range (up to 300 blocks/h).
