The pages and covers of a book or document need to be bound together for making them last longer and enhancing their appearance. Binding machines are used for purposes in which thread is used to bind together pages and covers, through a strip sewn over or along the edge for strengthening or decoration.
The most commonly available binding machines include comb, coil, velobind, tape, double loop wire, and thermal binding and padding. A number of companies manufacture these machines, including GBC, HOP, Plastikoil, Renz, Rhino Tuff, Rollabind, Standard, and Speil.
It is a fact that bound documents last longer than the unbound ones. A binding machine has manual punch or electric punch. Manual punch is frequently used for small and medium volume jobs, whereas the electric punch is used for medium and large volume jobs. Currently available binding machines are fully automated for ensuring efficiency and effective time utilization. Presentation effect, manufacturing speed, and number of pages per bind will decide which binding technology is best suited for a particular application. It is generally observed that electric binding machines are more efficient and enable higher quality binding.
There are two commonly used methods of binding: friction type and knotted ends type. In friction type, binding knots pass at least once around a load of papers, and are held in place by the friction caused between the windings of the line that pass over top of the other winding. The binding knots, in the knotted end types, are passed at least once around the load and are detained in the position by two ends of the line, which are knotted together.
While choosing a binding machine, it is recommended to look out for certain features. These are punch capacity x96 how many sheets it can punch at one time, bind capacity x96 how many sheets it can bind at one time, the accepted paper size, and its mode of function.
