|---|---|---|---|
| Max Speed | Up to 360 books/hour | Up to 360 books/hour | Double your production rate with multiple operators. With an actual spped of 180-200 books per hour and the capacity to accommodate multiple operators, production of up to 360 books per hour can be achieved. This speed is not possible in other competitive machines as they are designed for single operator. |

| Max Cover Size | 13.4" x 30.75" | 13.4" x 30.75" | |
| Book Block Size (Max) | 12.5" spine x 8.7" | 12.5" spine x 8.7" | (Actual unbound book height can be higher, call for info) |
| Book Block Size (Min) | 4" spine x 3-3/4" | 4" spine x 3-3/4" | |
| Clamp | Automatic/Pneumatic | Automatic/Pneumatic | |
| Roughing/Milling Blade | Roughing Blade and 4 Notching Pins | Milling and 2 Heavy Duty Notching Pins | Roughing/Milling Blade gives the spine more surface area for the glue to adhere on. Model CPB2SG is equipped with Roughing/Milling Blade. This procedure makes it easier when working with coated paper and other types of paper stock that need more glue saturation. |
| Glue Rollers | 2 Glue, 1 Metering | 2 Glue, 1 Metering, Side Glue Tank | Glue rollers provide a foolproof bond. The CPB1 and CPB2SG all have 2 Glue Rollers and 1 Metering. Model CPB2SG have the Side Glue Tank. A stonger bond is made with the side gle when the cover is nipped. This creates strong adhesion of the cover to the book block on both the spine and front/back. A built in heat control ensure that the temperature is always optimal. |
| Vacuum Waste Removal System | No | Yes | Having a Vacuum Waste Removal System helps keep the machine in optimal operating performance. The system collects dust that would otherwise end up inside the machine and glue. Without the vacuum system, paper dust produced from the roughening and notching process will accumulate and will cause future issues and damaged. |
| Safety Hood | No | Yes | Protecting operators from accidents is the Safety Hood. This feature prevents access to the glue pots. It is only bypassed when a security key is inserted. The function is convenient when the book block height exceeds the opening of the safety cover. It also provides access in troubleshooting the machine. To make sure that no accidents happen, a clamp safety sensor runs the entire length of the clamp. |
| Clamp Safety Sensor | Yes | Yes | Clamp Safety Sensors run the entire length of the book clamp to restrict access during operation. This prevent accidents that happend from contact with the binding parts. |
| Book & Cover Sensors | Yes | Yes | The Book and Cover Sensor makes sure that outputs are always complete. The sensor alerts the operator when a book or cover is missing. The binder will not operate when one of these components is missing. |
| Stand | Optional | Included | A stand for the CPB1 will optimize its function and productivity as it provides the perfect working height, proper balance, and stability. The stand will create a cohesive workstation as it provides space for the compressor and glue storage. |
| Air Compressor | Yes | Yes | The binder takes advantage of Pneumatic control. It offers convenience and speed with its auto adjust functions for book block size. |
| Fume Extractor | Yes | Yes | Create a smell and odor-free work place with the Fume Extractor. The extractor traps fumes from the glue pot and directs away from the operator. Hooking the extractor to an external vent keeps the fume out of the workplace for operator safety. |
| Automatic Cover Creaser | No | No | The Automatic Cover Creaser eliminates the possibility of cracking in the folded site especially when workinth digitally printed media. This feature maintains the aesthetic of the print and elevates the quality of the final product. Having this built in feature eliminates the need for an additional process on a separate machine, saving you time and money. |
| Creasing Bar | No | No | The Creasing Bar gives operators sevaral creasing depth options. It can be rotated in four directions to select the perfect crease depth for every unique project. |
