Welbound highlights its perfect binders

Shaktivel Nadar, area sales manager (West), said, “Pamex is an event where we expect to meet our existing customers and exchange information on new technologies, best practices and discuss how, together we can be more efficient."

 

The WB 2000, Welbound’s signature six-clamp perfect binding machine along with PureBind 350, which is a PUR single-clamp machine, is being demonstrated live at the stall.

 

Today, safety and environment friendliness is a critical factor. The WB 2000 machine is equipped with a special type of milling cutter which removes paper in strips, thus avoiding paper dust. Additionally, the machine is equipped with safety features like safety cover, built-in safety system with emergency stops among others.

 

Also a pre-melter from Nordson, attached to the WB2000, was on display. According to Nadar, “Such a device will help optimise the consumption of the adhesive, while at the same time ensure that the application is done at the right temperature.”

 

The six-clamp WB 2000 has seen more than 1000 installations pan India. 

 

The PureBind, single clamp perfect binder is suitable for short run offset and digital book production. The machine is equipped with slot die coater from Nordson, with auto adjustment for book thickness. The pre-melter for disposing of PUR adhesive has an optional twin cylinder. With the twin cylinder pre-melter, one can easily switch between PUR and EVA hotmelts.

 

Welbound also reaches out to book printers in the need to enhance efficiencies in their operations. The various initiatives of Welbound Technical services include plant audits, training of operators and maintenance engineers, and the introduction of new methods in enhancing efficiency.
