Horizon BQ-480 Perfect Binder
The Horizon BQ-480 Perfect Binder features the quickest set-up and changeover for variable book production in its class, especially for book-of-one. With interchangeable PUR and EVA glue tanks, the binder also offers advanced automation through a movable, color touchscreen including adjustments for roller height, nipping height, and amount of side glue. Specially designed to meet the requirements of PUR book binding, the BQ-480 includes a gentle elevator delivery system with a mere 5mm drop, and also accommodates the lowest temperature setting for PUR glue.
Horizon BQ-480 Perfect Binder Features:
- Higher Level of Automation – In addition to dimension-based automation, the BQ-480 features customized automated setup accounting for paper type, signature vs. loose sheet, sewn book blocks, notch binding, and other key factors for higher quality with less effort.
- Book of One Production – Maximum production speed of 800 books per hour for book of one production. (Production speed changes depending on thickness change from book to book.)
- Gentle Book Delivery System – Uniquely designed book delivery mechanism delivers the book gently for high quality books, even with 65 mm (2.56”) thickness books or PUR bound books.
