Best Graphics, Ibis’ North American Sales Agent, Sell an Ibis Smart-binder 2 Saddle Stitcher for Variable Data, Variable Page Count Bookletmaking – 

 

Best Graphics (WI) have secured a Smart-binder SB 2 Saddle Stitcher order from a large, multi-facility publication printer. This unit will run “near line” behind an unwinder, inline sheeter, and a Hewlett-Packard HP PageWide digital web press.

 

 

After the HP PageWide digital web press engine prints variable data onto roll-based paper, the product moves over to a near line unwinder with inline cutting (“web cutter”) capabilities to produce 4-page signatures. Because of the digital print technology of the HP PageWide, each 4-pager can convey unique data, text, personalized information. The digital press also provides a 2D, a 3 to 9, or comparable barcode on each page. These are read by cameras, allowing the data to reverts back to the Ibis Smart-binder’s central controls, thereby determining how many 4-page signatures (per book) are to be scored and fed into the Ibis gathering, collating section.

 

Once the pre-determined set of signatures makes a completed booklet – variable in page count, and variable in data – a cover is matched to the set before Hohner stitch heads wire staple the book. Thereafter, the book is three-sided trimmed (to remove any unnecessary barcodes).

 

 

 

Recognized for their reliability, 100% verification guarantee, and low-cost of ownership, this will be the 11th Ibis Smart-binder high speed, variable page saddle stitcher purchased by this long standing Ibis-Best Graphics’ account.
