Description of the Akiles WireMac-EX21 Binding Machine
The WireMac-EX21 is a heavy-duty finishing machine designed for professional twin-loop wire binding applications, built to streamline both punching and closing in one compact unit. With its electric punching motor and integrated manual closer, this “all-in-one” machine enables efficient workflow: you insert the document, activate the punch (via foot pedal), then load the wire and close it—all in the same machine. The EX21 model uses the 2:1 pitch (two holes per inch) configuration which accommodates larger-diameter wires—ideal when binding thicker reports or presentations. It features a generous 14" open-ended throat that handles longer or non-standard length documents, fully disengageable punch pins (27 pins) so you can skip holes when punching smaller‐sized stacks without wasted margins, and margin controls (both depth and side guides) to ensure consistent and clean alignment. Built with an all-metal frame and designed for moderate to high-volume use, the unit can punch up to approximately 25 sheets of standard 20 lb paper in one pass. The integrated wire closer adjusts to different wire diameters (up to about 1-1/2") and employs a wire-holder and selector for precision. With a sturdy build, practical features like a reverse motor function for jam clearance, and a one-year manufacturer’s warranty, the WireMac-EX21 delivers a reliable, professional binding solution for offices, copy shops and in-house finishing rooms that demand clean, high-quality wire-bound documents.
