“The machine will be installed in Bengaluru at the printing facility of Ajax Fiori, a joint-venture partner of Edis Publishing. We had to do deep research and develop this product for them, as previously we were producing machines with 18-22 gathering stations. We had to create a new motor and vacuum system for this machine,” said Som Sapru, general manager at PEW.

The machine gathers signatures from 40gsm forms onwards. It can run up to 5,000 signature blocks per hour with the facility of inline wire stitching (optional) and rejection of bad copies. “The reject ejector system of the machine is equipped with Autonics photo-sensors which will stop the machine to eject the faulty form and ensure that only the right forms are gathered,” he added.
 
He also added that PEW  is currently developing a signature gathering machine with a double system and an in-line three-knife trimmer along with it.
