Duplo DB-280 Perfect Binder (Discontinued)

Description of the Duplo DB-280 Perfect Binder

If you create manuals, notepads, self-published documents, tape bound books, or soft cover books, it is likely that you know you need a binder. The DB-280 Perfect Binder is viewed as one of the more user friendly models and can even be described as highly automated in many of its processes. It is a great component for any desktop publishing professionals, and is capable of creating up to 200 books in a single hour. The DB-280 Perfect Binder is truly an automatic machine because it allows for single person operation. The pages are set into the designated clamps and then the binding process is initiated by the central control panel. The process used involves two passes over a spine roughening blade to ensure that notching is done to the levels needed for optimized glue absorption. Should tape binding be desired, this unit is also equipped to provide this function as well. The DB-280 Perfect Binder can perform perfect binding, padding, and tape binding. This means it is one of the most flexible units available, and it is capable of handling up to 360 cycles in a single hour (though a maximum of 200 books is indicated).

The books that this machine can make range in size from 1.97" x 3.25" to a massive 12.6" x 15.75". It can bind tiny publications of 1.6" in thickness and allows the operator to set the unit into a standby mode that keeps the glue warm for five minutes before shutting down. The single operator panel uses a very streamlined LED display that gives clear indications of the status of the unit. It lets the operator know when there are errors, when standby is triggered, and when there is a need for service. The unit is fitted with dual glue drums to cut down on maintenance, and there is a dust extractor unit to help manage debris and output. It is a surprisingly small unit and measures around 50" x 22", yet it can handle almost all of your binding needs. The DB-280 Perfect Binder is a very affordable binding solution for printers and publishers of many kinds. It is user friendly and allows single operator convenience. It can process in great volume and without a lot of maintenance or monitoring. This binder can be a very simple solution for those in need of reliable performance, and is sure to become a go to resource for those who use it.
