GBC Australia introduces versatile Duplo saddle stitcher

The Duplo DBMi system will be officially launched in Australia at GBC’s Regents Park head office in Sydney in two weeks’ time, April 17 and 18, along with a variety of print and finishing innovations for 2012.

According to GBC the Duplo DBMi is designed for today’s busy printer, and provides versatile and flexible solutions for the current saddle stitching market. It consists of two, three or four Hohner stitching heads, and up to six DSC-10/60i suction collators which have intelligent feeding capabilities for custom feed sequences. Jimmy Nguyen national product manager at GBC Australia says, “As well as being capable of handling a variety of stocks it also has the ability to control the flow and strength of the air and vacuum in each collator bin, truly making this the heart of the system.”

GBC says the DBMi Saddle System is user friendly, controlled by a GUI (graphical user interface) PC control unit, meaning that a single operator can set most of the parameters from one location making this an attractive solution for both short-run digital and longer run offset applications.

Speed is also an important factor when it comes to the DBMi Saddle System. An impressive 9,000 books per hour can be achieved when fitted with the optional DKT-200 trimmer and gutter cut knives. Stored jobs can be recalled almost instantly, with set up time taking 60 seconds or less including the scoring tool height and folding gap thickness for each individual book.
