FEATURES
Semi-automatic glue application
Fastbind
Optima features an automatized glue application, which ensures even and
constant binding results for on-demand or medium runs of book
production and allows a “stand-by” temperature selection.
Roughener - PGO
Fastbind
Optima includes the exclusive “PGO” Paper Grain Opening system. This
noiseless and dust-free roughening unit makes the machine suitable for
handling the most difficult papers. The operator can control the number
of PGO passes that need to be made to ensure a solid bind.
Easy to use
The system self
adjusts automatically to different thicknesses and page formats,
allowing non-stop production between different binding jobs. There are
no set-up times or book format adjustments. Anyone can be making
professional quality books and reports in minutes.

OPTIONAL TOOLS AND ACCESSORIES
Cover Trimmer
The optional cover trimmer
is very easy to use and eliminates the need to measure and set-up a
cumbersome guillotine trimmer. Slip the cover excess into the slot,
rest the book block on the rail and then pull the rotary trimmer handle
across the book for a perfect cover trim.
Hard Cover Toolkit
The optional hardcover toolkit consists of a hardcover nipping bar and a special
paper guide. It allows you to bind hard cover books
with your Fastbind binding machine. The special shape of the bar gives
professional look to the finished book.
