Akiles WireMac-21 Wire Binding Machine

The Akiles WireMac-21 combines a heavy-duty manual punch with a vertical wire closer for 2:1 pitch twin-loop binding. It is intended for thicker wire-bound manuals, reports, calendars, and presentation books.

The 14-inch punch has an open throat for longer sheets. All 27 dies can be disengaged, helping the operator center different sheet sizes without leaving a partial hole. A wire-diameter scale and closer selector support repeatable setup.
