DUPLO INTERNATIONAL INTRODUCES NEW VERSATILE SADDLE STITCHER
16 Feb 2012

Duplo International has announced details of its latest fully automated saddle stitcher, the DBMi Saddle System, which can produce books from CD inserts to A4 landscape. With book thicknesses up to 120 pages this innovative machine delivers flatter, more precise books than any other machine in the market.

Designed for today’s busy printer the system which provides versatile & flexible solutions for the current saddle stitching market consists of two, three or four Hohner stitching heads, and up to six DSC-10/60i suction collators which have intelligent feeding capabilities for custom feed sequences. “As well as being capable of handling a variety of stocks we also have the ability to control the flow and strength of the air and vacuum in each collator bin, truly making this the heart of the System”. Comments Terry Wafer, Graphic Arts Product Marketing Manager at Duplo International.

The DBMi Saddle System is extremely user friendly, it is completely controlled by a GUI (Graphical User Interface) PC control unit which means that a single operator can set most of the parameters from one location making this an attractive solution for both short-run digital and longer run offset applications.

Speed is also an important factor when it comes to the DBMi Saddle System. An impressive 9,000 books per hour can be achieved when fitted with the optional DKT-200 trimmer and gutter cut knives. Stored jobs can be recalled almost instantly, with set up time taking 60 seconds or less including the scoring tool height and folding gap thickness for each individual book.

Robin Greenhalgh, Chairman of Duplo International said, “Complementing Duplo’s existing line of quality fully automatic bookletmakers, the DBMi Saddle System gives our customers the capability to produce professionally saddle stitched publications including the increasingly popular A4 landscape size”.

“The innovative DBMi Saddle System, offers printers a wealth of features that will allow them to grow and improve the profitability of their business.” Concluded Mr Greenhalgh.
