MICROPARK highlights and benefits

Downstream stoppages in a perfect binding or combined perfect binding/casing in line will cause the binder to stop: But before it can halt, the binder must complete its cycle, finishing the binding of all books in its clamps; in other words, it must be empty.
In such cases there is no other way than having the books escape through an emergency exit.
Usually such exits consist of divert conveyors which require, whenever actuated, a person to take away the books and deposit them provisionally onto a skid.
After the trimmer re-starts the same person must re-feed the books to be trimmed onto the conveyor.
All these operations can be accomplished automatically by the MICROPARK: Depending on format and thickness it will accept between 35 and 70 books; only when filled up, will it stop the binder.
Thus the accumulator not only permits the binder to continue to work but also influences its output: As long as the trimmer stops are minimal, the binder can produce continuously.

MICRO-MACROPARK characteristics

The MICROPARK accepts one book per shelf, whereas every MACROPARK shelf takes up one max. 1,200 mm long row of books varying between 2 and 10 books per row depending on spine length.
The shelves can be switched for book thicknesses from 5 to 35 mm or 35 to 70 mm, resulting in 70 or 35 useable shelves respectively.
