Zechini Bombardier 2 Automatic Casing-In Machine

Zechini's Bombardier 2 can combine board book blocks with various types of cases: hard cover, padded cases, paperboard covers and cases with windows. The special feature of this machine is that glue is applied onto the case and not on the book block as is customary. Dedicated software allows the glue to be applied by nozzles so that you don't need to make any dies or clean the gluye tank. Cases are forwarded open through the machine, the glue is applied by nozzles onto the cases and then book blocks are attached onto the cases. Thanks to its modular build, the machine offers cost-effective casing-in of books up to 1.34" (35 mm) thick.
