Every year it seems like budgets get

tighter and tighter for both school and public libraries.

Unfortunately, a large amount far too much of this budget ends up

getting spent on replacing trade paperback books that have fallen apart

or buying new trade paperbacks that will soon fall apart. However,

school and public libraries that own a Powis Parker Fastback Binding

Machine can put their machine to use and can extend the life of these

books.

Most trade paperback books are mass manufactured by publishers for

occasional use by private individuals. They are made to be read through

a few times without falling apart. However, popular books in a library

get far more usage than this. Within 4-5 reads, the book block can

begin to separate from the cover and some of the pages can begin to

fall out of the book. This is partially because the book block is not

fully seated into the glue during the initial binding process. Using

your Fastback 15xs or other fastback binding machine (the model 11, 8x

and 9 will work but have limited capacity compared to the model 15) you

can take your brand new books and extend their life through a simple

process. Here is what you need to do.

1. Take the brand new trade paperbacks when they first arrive from your

supplier and set them aside. It is important that you complete this

process before you cover them with any type of protective layer or

allow them to be read by students or patrons.

2. When you are ready to begin the process simply turn on your Fastback

binding machine and set it to the editing mode. This mode is normally

designed for adding or removing pages from a document bound with

Fastback. In this instance you won’t be using the editing mode to add

or remove pages; you will simply be using the machine to reactivate the

glue in the spine of your paperback book.

3. When the machine is warmed up and ready to bind, you can insert one

of your paperback books into the throat of the machine. In most cases

you can process 2 paperback books at a time using the 15xs depending on

their size. Press the start button on the front of the machine and

activate the editing cycle. This will tell the machine to heat up the

spine of the book and activate the glue that holds the book block

together.

4. Once the book has completed the binding cycle you simply need to

remove it from the Fastback binding machine and firmly tap the still

hot spine on a hard surface such as a table or countertop. This will

cause the book block to settle further into the hot glue inside the

spine of your book.

5. After allowing the book to cool you can finish processing it for

addition to your collection and place it on the shelf for your patron’s

to read. This simple step can add as much as 50% to the lifespan of

your book and took less than a minute to complete.

If by chance you do have a paper back book with a cover that begins to

separate from its book block you can also use your Fastback machine to

quickly and easily repair it. All you need to do is use the editing

setting to reactivate the glue in the spine and re-adhere the cover to

the book. In extreme cases where pages are falling out you can also use

a fastback machine to rebind the book block using tape binding or can

use PerfectBack binding strips to add a new wrap around cover to book.

The TitanWire is an extremely heavy duty 3:1 pitch wire

binding machine produced by the Document Finishing Group (DFG).

Although DFG is a relative newcomer to the marketplace, they have

prided themselves on producing a line of equipment that is stronger,

more durable and better built than their competition.This machine can bind documents

with traditional Twin Loop, Double Loop, Double-O, Wire-O and WireBind

spines. However, it can also be used with GBC Proclick reclosable

spines and with 3:1 pitch spiral coil.

Overview: The TitanWire is an extremely heavy duty 3:1 pitch wire

binding machine produced by the Document Finishing Group (DFG).

Although DFG is a relative newcomer to the marketplace, they have

prided themselves on producing a line of equipment that is stronger,

more durable and better built than their competition.With

these things in mind, they created the TitanWire to meet the needs of

small to medium sized businesses who were looking for a heavy duty Twin

loop wire binding system.This machine can bind documents

with traditional Twin Loop, Double Loop, Double-O, Wire-O and WireBind

spines. However, it can also be used with GBC Proclick reclosable

spines and with 3:1 pitch spiral coil.It also has a number of heavy duty features that help to set it apart from its competition.

Strengths / Features:

One of the most impressive things about the DFG TitanWire

binding machine is the fact that it can punch up to 25 sheets at a

time. For a manual binding machine this is an excellent punching

capacity. To be fair, you do have to pull the handle pretty hard to

punch through that many sheets. Still, most other comparable machines

punch around twenty sheets at a time. This gives this machine a 25%

advantage in punching capacity over most of its competition.Another

great thing about this machine is the fact that it can be used for

multiple binding styles. It is specifically designed for use with 3:1

pitch double loop wire which is available in sizes ranging from 3/16"

up to 9/16". However, companies that want to add some variety to their

reports or need to occasionally bind a larger document can potentially

use 3:1 pitch spiral coil or GBC Proclick spines with this system.The

construction of the TitanWire is almost completely metal. The body of

the machine, the punching mechanism, the punching dies, the handle and

the wire closer are all made of steel or other ultra strong metal

alloys. The design and components of this machine are built to

withstand years of daily use.The wire closer on Titan-Wire

is extremely durable and solid. It has two large adjustment knobs that

allow you to fine tune the closer to ensure that every spine is closed

evenly every time. It also uses high quality machined steel closing

blocks that won’t warp or become deformed over time.In

addition to all of these features, the Titan-Wire also has a number of

other excellent features including: a document measurer to help you

choose the right size of spine for your books, fully disengageable dies

for punching custom length books, a continuous punching guide to help

you punch longer sheets using a two step process and an adjustable

punching margin that allows you to select how far away from the edge of

the book that you want your holes to be punched.HF Tent Welding Machine Manufacturers
