Palamides DeltaPro – Automatic delivery

With the new automatic delta delivery the focus is on higher productivity with lower personnel costs. Sturdy, easy-to-handle stacks ensure effective removal to subsequent processing machines.

The delta is primarily a fully automatic delivery system, which streamlines the production process. Here, rationalisation is key, not bundling the packages. By using a delta at a folding machine only one operator will be required. Also, at saddle stitchers, one person can remove the stack cost-effectively even with 2-up or 3-up production and all at full running capacity. Handling the packages is quick and easy, even for in-house transfer from the folding machine to the saddle stitcher. The band merely serves as a means of relocating the products quickly, simply and efficiently.

The delta sets new standards for speed, format range and user-friendliness. With its 600 packages per hour per product stream, it puts all previous machines in the shade. With the tandem version up to 3,600 packages per hour can be processed.

Products which can be processed:

• Folding machines combi or buckle folding machines, irrespective of manufacturer
• Saddle stitchers, from the smallest products in multiple up-work up to A3 formats
• Mailers, slippery and asymmetrical products
• Digital printing machines, regardless of whether parallel or cross fold

Alpha – stacking delivery

The products are collected by the machine and the neatly jogged stacks are delivered to a buffer table. The operator removes the ergonomically convenient jogged stack from the delivery table and no longer has to knock-up the products. This means that, even after several hours of production, the folding machine can still run at full production without tiring the operator.

The alpha delivers free of markings, i.e. no smearing of freshly printed products. In order to reduce set-up times the machine sets itself up pretty much automatically (automatic stacker). The pressing unit can be opened at the press of a button, which greatly simplifies press roller cleaning and removal of double sheets.

As the alpha was mainly designed for signatures, the pressing unit is equipped with 3.5 t of pressing force (cumulated). As with all palamides‘ deliveries, the alpha identifies waste and automatically ejects it. Alongside this delivery technology, which has been established for years, palamides have designed a further essential component, “the intelligent output module”, which only forwards book blocks that have been checked for completeness to the subsequent finishing unit (e.g. adhesive binder etc.).

Roby Junior 2 – Gluing and turning-in machines

Compact and versatile semi-automatic casemaker suitable both for short and medium runs.

• Maximum size 50x70cm
• Speed 250 pieces/hour
• Type of glue: hot and cold

Features:

Gluing unit – Integrated in the machine in order to save floor space and the walking effort. Usually used with hot, animal glue, the unit can also be used with cold, vinyl glue.

Vacuum worktable – Prevents the covering material from moving during the positioning of boards. A backlit central window allows to accurately position the book title along the book spine.

Automatic board feeder – Ensures high productivity and perfect alignment of boards.

Turning-in unit – Works with all the usual covering materials. Turns in two sides at a time. Includes a corner closing device.

Manual board positioning device – Useful for short runs, cases with flexible spine and cases whose spine is thinner than 12.5 mm.

X-Case – Casing-in machine

The X-Case is an ideal casing-in machine for short runs. It has a sturdy build, wide size range and guarantees high quality binding.  A common drive ensures that the speed between the book and the gluing rollers remains constant regardless of the book weight.  To produce durable books the X-Case automatically applies a double amount of glue at the joints.

• Maximum size 50x46cm
• Speed 200 pieces/hour
• Gluing device with function of double spreading
• Manual opening of the book block and placing on the blade
• Manual positioning of the book case
• Gluing with cold (vinyl) glue
• Grooved rollers ensure even distribution of glue in a thin layer
