Sterling 860
Perfect Binder. This single-clamp, hot-melt perfect binder
and padding machine produces professional quality books. Developed for
printers, in-plant printers, on-demand printers, and bindery companies, the
Sterling Digibinder will fill the job. Push button setup allows the
operator to change book thickness quickly.
To operate, place a book in the
clamp and the Digibinder automatically adjusts for book thickness clamping it
tightly. Place a cover sheet on the left side cover table. Press
the start button and the book passes over the roughing/notching saw blade and
then the twin glue rollers which apply an even amount of glue to the spine of
the book as it moves to the cover station. Once the book is aligned over
the cover, the cover is pressed against the glued edge and squeezed around the
book. The clamp will time out releasing the book and return to the
loading station.
Here are the features:
* Maximum book thickness 2"
* Maximum spine length 12.5"
* Digital control panel
* Warm-up time 30 minutes
* Up to 360 books per hour
* Adjustable glue temperature, nipper dwell time, book height for the
nipper plate
* Electrical 220 volt, 1 phase

Challenge
CMT 130 Three-Knife Trimmer. Short-run perfect binding has
made great strides within our industry in recent years. Trimming duties have
been carried out by traditional guillotines for many years, but this process
is very time-consuming and less than ideal for the dynamic digital book
publishers of today. Drawing on over 139-years of cutting experience,
Challenge set out to design and build the ultimate book trimming
solution needed for today’s competitive marketplace – the CMT 130.
The sturdy steel and cast-iron design of the CMT 130 ensures years of
trouble-free operation. Hydraulic clamping and cutting action provides
strength to cut through up to 2” (50.8mm) thick books without hesitation.
Standard features such as UHMW gib surfaces, composite bushings, and stepper
motor technology require virtually zero maintenance.
The industry-exclusive modularity of the CMT 130 provides added possibilities
for future growth within your organization.
The CMT 130 can be configured as a hand-feed off-line trimmer for
cost-effective trimming. The optional high-capacity feeder permits up to 36” /
914 cm of books to be stacked and automatically fed into the trimmer. The
optional vertical stacker allows up to 24” / 609 cm of books to be delivered.
When these two items are combined, this near-line trimming solution permits
the perfect binder operator to also feed and collect product from the CMT 130
solution. The CMT 130 can also be configured for true in-line trimming by
substituting the book pile feeder with our infeed conveyor and cooling
elevator. A variety of conveyors are available to interface your perfect
binder with the CMT 130.
The intuitive menu-driven controller allows variable mode data entry with up
to 99 job storage. Swift size changes occur in approximately 10 seconds
with no tools required! Machine self-diagnostics and error indication
walk the operator through any difficulties. Third party control via serial
communications allows integration of bar code readers/size change apparatus.
Proudly manufactured in the USA, the CMT 130 provides consistent cut quality,
durability, and industry-exclusive modularity that you have come to expect
from Challenge products. The CMT 130 continues our legacy of providing… assurance you made the right decision.
