Binding

If your large business needs to bind together documents frequently and in large volumes, then you understand what a time-consuming task it can be. There is machine setup for particular job specifications, manual operation of the machine during the job process, and then finishing of the particular binding, such as edge trimming or inserting. Plus, the operation of these machines is usually quite expensive; not just with the initial investment into the industrial machinery required, but the cost of your operators' time during production, which is an ongoing and increasing cost. This large machinery also takes up quite a bit of real estate space in your office or production room. But now there is a better solution; a machine that solves all of these problems.
