Col-Tec Signature Collator

A flat-sheet gatherer that could also collate folded sections and books was unheard of when the Col-Tec Signature collator launched in 2002. First shown at Graph Expo in Chicago, it took a while for the market to be convinced of the benefits of such an unusual device. As a result initial uptake was slow – the manufacturer produced only one Signature collator for every five conventional flat-sheet collators it manufactured, but today 50 per cent of its production are Signatures.
