Muller Martini Tigra
With over 750 installations worldwide, the Tigra perfect binder proved to be a popular entry-level machine for book printers. The Muller Martini machine was unveiled in 1997 to replace the 1987 Panda perfect binder. The Tigra was a one-shot hot melt machine with traditional glue rollers submerged in a heated gluepot. This was connected to a pre-melter, with a separate gluepot for the side glue. After nine years of service, the Tigra was replaced by the Pantera, which was launched at Ipex 2006.
