About the Duplo 150FR Booklet System
Not only is the Duplo 150Fr booklet system an entry level booklet maker, it also happens to be the smallest fully automatic booklet system in the world, and the most user-friendly system in the market. The 150Fr combines the DBM-150 Booklet Maker and Trimmer with the 10-station DFC-101 vertical friction collator, capable of output of 7,200 sets per hour. This is Duplo’s most cost effective solution and is ideal for schools and colleges where higher volumes of offline booklets need producing quickly.
As with the Duplo DBM150T the 150FR incorporates fully automated setup with job memory to allow instant recall of repeat work. Unlike other models in the same range there is no need to manually adjust side guides or trimming positions, simply tap the booklet size into the intuitive LCD display and press go. The 150FR will do the rest, setting all the guides into position automatically and then starting once the process is complete.
The addition of the optional trimming unit allows for complete booklet production in one pass, the booklet is stitched, folded and then trimmed along the front edge to remove any creep and produce a professional document. The booklets are ready without the need for extra guillotining or handling by other departments, much faster and a more secure operation is achieved using the integrated trimmer unit.
Why buy the Duplo 150FR? For business owners
Short on space? The 150Fr Booklet System is your friend, measuring just 2450mm x 560mm x 1474mm (height), making it ideal for low to mid volume users. In spite of its size, the system can still finish a wide range of jobs.
The Duplo 150FR is the ideal companion for low to mid volume users such as Quick printers, Copy shops, In-plants and in particular education print departments looking to take their booklet production offline for faster production. Their ease of use, flexibility and speed of production enable many Schools, Colleges, copy shops and smaller printers to bring a new revenue stream in-house with the introduction of booklet making equipment.
Should the requirements of the businesses change, the modularity of the system makes it very easy to upgrade with various feed options available including upgrades to a dedicated digital sheet feeder which allows near line automation with its ability to feed pre-collated sets.
Why buy the Duplo 150FR? For operators
The whole 150FR system can be set in 4 easy steps with all aspects of the setup controlled from the DFC-101 collator station. Operators can instantly recall preset sizes or enter custom jobs and store them in the 20 capacity memory function for future use. The 150 Booklet Maker and Trimmer features a state of the art control panel which further enhances the flexibility of the machine as minute adjustments can be made to the work being processed to ensure you get the perfect finish. Overall the 150FR Booklet Maker is an extremely user-friendly machine which requires very little training.
Sheet delivery is consistent thanks to the three friction wheels on the DFC-101 collator, allowing you to feed bond, NCR, light card, folded sheets and some coated stocks. Separator and tray pressures on each bin can be individually controlled, so thick and thin paper can be reliably fed from the same collator.
Get the next job ready quickly: there’s no need for manual adjustment of guides and trimming positions – just select the size booklet you require on the control panel and set up is automatic. Operators can adjust the stapling position manually if required.
