Mid-State Litho is an authorized Felins dealer in Grand Blanc, Michigan. Felins builds ultrasonic and heat-seal banding machines for print shops, binderies, mail houses, and packaging operations. These shops need clean paper bands without shrink wrap or heavy strapping. We sell, install, train, and service Felins banding equipment across Michigan and the Great Lakes.
We sell and service these Felins banders: ATS-MS ultrasonic models, US-2000 automated systems, and the CE and JD heat-seal series. Related pages: banding machines, shrink wrapping equipment, strapping machines and packaging equipment. Multi-brand options include Graphic Whizard SP-Banders.
To size a bander, we look at ultrasonic vs heat-seal, bundle size, and volume. We will match the series to your product and throughput. We quote a trade-in when an older bander still has life. Then we put the machine on the floor with operator training. Financing and leasing is available through Mitsubishi HC Capital and LEAF Commercial Capital. Call 1-800-343-4231.
Felins ultrasonic banding
Ultrasonic banding joins the band with a cold weld (no heat tunnel, no adhesive). Ultrasonic and automated models on this page:
- Felins ATS-MS models (including ATS-MS 420S class systems)
- Felins US-2000 CSW-DMS
- Felins US-2000 LBMMS
ATS-MS class systems cover mid-range ultrasonic banding for print finishing and bundling. US-2000 systems add more automation for continuous production and larger or more complex bundles. Confirm arch size, speed, feed, and band material on the quote.
Felins heat-seal banding
Heat-seal banders use thermal bonding on paper band stock. Heat-seal series on this page:
The CE Series is the compact heat-seal model for lighter production. The JD Series is the heavier heat-seal model for higher volume and duty cycle. Confirm material fit and cycle rate on the quote.
How to choose a Felins banding machine
Four decisions settle most quotes.
Ultrasonic vs heat-seal. Ultrasonic for cold-weld bands and many heat-sensitive or high-speed print finishing jobs. Heat-seal when thermal paper banding is the preferred process or budget path.
Bundle size and product. Magazines, books, mail stacks, and larger packs need the right arch and support. Bring sample product when you call.
Automation level. Stand-alone ATS-MS / CE / JD for operator-fed bundling. US-2000 when the line needs higher automation and continuous duty.
Brand fit. Felins is a dedicated banding brand. Graphic Whizard SP-Banders and other packaging equipment can fit better on some floors. Multi-brand is the point of buying from an integrator.
