What You Can Do With This Machine
The Booklet Maker BM 200, Trimmer FTR 200 and SquareFolder SQF 200 forms a booklet
making system that works online with a collator or ofine/online for hand feeding.
The print-outs from the Copier are collected in the nisher and then transported into the BM
200 Booklet Maker to the staple area. The Booklet Maker now jogs and then staples the set.
Thesetisthentransportedfurthertothe foldingareawheretheset isfoldedintoa bookletand
then fed out to the belt stacker. When a larger number of sheets are folded an effect called
creeping occurs. In order to rectify creep, the FTR 200 Trimmer (optional) can be attached
after the Booklet Maker. The booklets are then transported from the Booklet Maker into the
Trimmer where the trail edge will be cut off. If a FTR 200 Trimmer is installed to the BM 200
Booklet Maker, you can attach the SQF 200 SquareFolder (optional). The printouts, which
have been stapled, folded and trimmed will be fed into the SQF 200. The SQF 200 will atten
the spine of the booklet square. The booklets will, after passing the SQF 200, have the look
of a perfect bound book. The booklets are then fed out to the Belt Stacker.
To facilitate hand feeding, theBM 200 is equipped with a sliding top cover.The Booklet Maker
can also be used as a stand-alone unit for hand feeding.
