Why buy the Duplo 350 Digital Booklet System? For business owners
The 350 Digital System is an extremely capable, modular system combining digital sheet feeder, booklet maker and trimmer with the option of the ASM350 Squareback unit to create perfect bind effect finished booklets. This system provides features such as job integrity (for confidence that production is correct), fast operation and two feed trays (to allow the merging of differently finished stocks). Being a modular system, Duplo has a range of alternative feeding and finishing devices that provide the business owner with the opportunity to upgrade or change devices as needs change and business develops.
A critical feature for personalised and variable data print jobs is the barcode and or OMR reading capability of the 350 Digital Booklet System. It has Optical Mark Recognition and an optional Barcode Kit that provides two readers for each tray on the DSF-2200 feeder to ensure accuracy and integrity in data-driven applications.
Fast set-up and fast job changeover – no more than a minute in either case – all controlled from a single control panel. It is fully automatic and has space for 20 jobs in the memory for immediate recall. The Duplo 350 Digital Booklet System is the ideal solution for high production, high quality booklet making. The Deluxe stitching heads reduce the cost per booklet considerably due to the yield of stitches per wire spool, around 50,000 booklets per spool is achievable.
The NEW Duplo ASM350 Squareback module can also be added to offer the perfect bound look finish and a completely flat book. The whole system couples together and runs from the PC Controller, no special tools or setup is needed.
Why buy for the Duplo 350 Digital Booklet System? For operators
The fully automated 350 Digital Booklet System is extremely easy to use, setting up a job takes seconds via the PC Controller and dedicated Duplo Software. Infinite memory capabilities ensure every job you create can be recalled in seconds at any time in the future which vastly reduces set-up times making it easier to meet those all important deadlines.
Work with difficult paper stocks and be certain of optimum paper feeding reliability, thanks to the DSF-2200 sheet feeder’s 8-belt feeding mechanism and three individual DC fans on each bin. These provide suction for feeding plus both front and side air to separate the sheets, all controlled by the operator.
A key advantage of the Duplo 350 Digital Booklet System is its ability to run your book inner section separately from your book covers. During the print process if you print the entire job with the book covers in collated order, which are normally a heavier stock, the print engine slows down to produce the cover due to the thicker materials needing to be processed at a higher heat setting, this delays production.
Furthermore, because the covers are then collated in to the printed stack you are prevented from applying extra effects such as laminating or foiling. The Duplo 350 Digital Booklet Maker utilises two feed stations, one for the covers and the other for the book block, this allows you to apply extra finishes to the covers whilst the inner book blocks are being printed, thus streamlining your production processes.
The system can process up to 200 sheets per minute without operator intervention or any wastage. Moreover the feed trays on the DSF-2200 can be utilised in five different ways for optimum efficiency.
