Morgana to Launch the DigiBook 200 at Graph Expo

Visit Morgana in Booth #4013. Register for your VIP Demo today at Graph Expo!

Morgana will use the Graph Expo event to launch the DigiBook 200 in the US. The 200 was first shown at IPEX earlier this year, with units shipping in Europe since July. The DigiBook 200 perfect binder is suited to traditional and digital printers who require short to medium runs of PUR perfect bound books to a professional standard. The DigiBook 200 is equipped with a patented closed gluing system where the spine and side gluing is automatically applied by a slot applicator for the utmost binding quality and accuracy.

PUR is the strongest, most flexible binding adhesive available and offers several additional advantages over other binding adhesives. When inks, coatings or digital print toners are present in the spine area these can compromise the strength of typical hotmelt perfect binding. PUR is resistant to this and will form a super-strong bond with all weights and finishes of paper stocks. In addition PUR works well with synthetic and recycled-content stock.

Key Product Features:

• Up to 200 books per hour
• Touch screen operation with automatic set up
• Binding length (spine) from 4.3″ up to 14.9″
• Spine thickness from 0.03″ to 1.96″
• Adjustable spine preparation by sophisticated milling and notching device
• Paper chip extractor
• Patented hermetically sealed PUR application system for a spine and side gluing with automatic glue cut-off
• Automatic cleaning and sealing of the glue head
• Electronic connection to Morgana Autocreaser Pro for cover creasing
