About Perfect Binder PB-503

The machine with Perfect Binder PB-503 mounted automatically attaches a copied set with a cover paper to make a perfect-bound book, applying a dab of glue to the spine.

When Saddle Stitcher SD-513 is used together, the following functions are available.

  • Cover Fore-Edge Trimming

  • When ON is selected, the machine trims the cover by the amount automatically estimated from the following formula, in the range from 5 mm to 40.0 mm in 0.1 mm increments.
    Trimming width = (Cover width) - (Body width 2) - (Spine width)

  • If the estimated amount exceeds 10 mm, the machine automatically trims the cover regardless of whether the trimming setting is determined.

  • Cover 2-Side Slitting

  • This function is available when Saddle Stitcher SD-513 equipped with Trimmer Unit TU-503 is mounted on this machine.

  • This function carries out 2-side slitting at the top for the cover that is loaded into a tray other than the cover tray of the perfect binder. The 2-side slitting is not available for the body.

  • The slitting amount can be specified between 8.0 mm and 26.0 mm in 0.1 mm increments.

  • The difference between the slitting amounts at the top is within 10.0 mm.

  • Crease

  • This function is available when Saddle Stitcher SD-513 equipped with Creaser Unit CR-101 is mounted on this machine.

  • Selecting (3) Spine makes two creases in the folded part on the spine cover.

  • Selecting (4) Gutter makes two creases in the gutter between the front and back covers to smoothly flip through pages in a binder. In this case, Back is only available for Crease.

  • Selecting (3) Spine + (4) Gutter makes two creases in each of the spine cover and gutter.
