About the Duplo 350C Booklet System
Fully automatic and designed to cater for the needs of mid volume commercial printers and in-plants, the 350 Booklet System is a productive and flexible booklet maker, capable of handling a wide range of paper types that can be variable within a single job. An impressive production speed of 3000 A5 booklets per hour and collating speeds of up to 10,000 A4 sets per hour.
Duplo’s 350C Booklet Maker consists of the DSC 10/20 Collator and DBM350 Booklet Maker with the option to add a 2nd DSC 10/20 collator tower as well as the ASM350 Squareback. The advantage of the Duplo 350C over the 150C is the inclusion of deluxe stitching heads as standard. Stitching heads offer a faster operation with greater flexibility but more importantly a lower consumable cost which for higher volumes can make a significant difference.
Why buy the Duplo 350C? For business owners
The Duplo 350C 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.
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. Programmable functions reduce downtime, increase productivity and efficiency, Block Mode is one of these features and means the tower can effectively be split in half, so that bins can be loaded even while a job is running, and even if the paper size is different. There is also alternate bin mode, split top bin and interleave modes, all of which offer continued production without interruption.
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 collator tower, no special tools or setup is needed.
Why buy for the Duplo 350C? For operators
The fully automated 350C Suction Booklet Maker is extremely easy to use, setting up a job takes seconds on the colour touch screen control panel. Alternatively, the operator can recall jobs from the 20 memories, this vastly reduces set-up times making it easier to meet those all important deadlines.
The Hand Marry unit is also featured on Duplo’s larger booklet making solutions, not only does it allow the operator to add loose sheets to a job, it also acts as a receiving tray for mis-collated sets, this in turn keeps disruption to a minimum.
Paper feeding is consistently accurate, even with different stock weights and sizes, giving you reliability and creative application options. The magic is in the DSC-10/20 collating towers, which deliver adjustable high power air or vacuum to each bin, while a vacuum feed belt makes sure every sheet is delivered accurately. High capacity stitching reels further remove the need for interruption by an operator which ensures productivity remains high.
