There are some other features that make the Galaxy E an exceptional machine


It should come as no surprise that
Fellowes, the maker of high-quality laminators and paper shredders, has
produced another superb office machine. This time it's the Galaxy E
electric plastic comb binding machine. This is a binding machine that's
great for large offices that bind a lot of documents, although it's not
recommended for industrial-level use. The Galaxy E has some cool
features that really enhance the binding experience, which will be
discussed below. To find out everything you've ever wanted to know
about the Galaxy E comb binding machine, keep on reading.


The Galaxy E is an electric plastic comb binding machine that can punch
up to 25 pages per lift. It can also bind documents that are up to 500
pages long. Since the Galaxy E is an electric machine and not a manual
one, to use it, all you need to do is line your document up for
punching and/or binding and press a button on the right side of the
machine. Like other Fellowes binding machines, such as the Quasar 130,
the Galaxy E has a vertical document loading area that helps you
accurately align your document for the binding process. Also, the
Galaxy E has semi-adjustable disengageable pins and an adjustable
margin control so you can create books that are size A4, as well as
letter-size and half size.


There are some other features that make the Galaxy E an exceptional
machine, such as its removable comb opener. When you have a removable
comb opener, one person can punch and another can bind, which means
you'll greatly boost your productivity. The Galaxy E also has a storage
tray for your binding combs, as well as a document sizing guide so you
can be sure to pick the right size comb for your binding project. The
machine's front-access waste compartment allows for quick, clean
emptying of the chip tray. And as with their other machines, Fellowes
has included a binding starter pack that contains combs and covers to
help you get binding as soon as you get your machine.


The Galaxy E, while a top-notch binding machine, does have a few
drawbacks. Despite its great punching and binding capacity, the Galaxy
E isn't really ideal for industrial-type punching and binding. This
machine is meant for use in offices that need a reliable binding
machine. Print shops, binderies and in-plant facilities will need to
consider a higher-volume machine such as the GBC CombBind C800pro.
Also, while the Galaxy E's pins allow for three different sizes of
books, you'd need a binding machine with fully disengageable dies to
create custom-sized documents. Considering the price point of the
Galaxy E (approximately $500.00), it's a bit surprising that Fellowes
didn't just go ahead and give the machine fully disengageable pins. It
would have made a great machine just about perfect.


Overall, the Galaxy E is an electric plastic comb binding machine that
should please all sorts of users who need such a machine for their
office. It's got some great features, an awesome punching capacity, and
it carries the esteemed Fellowes name. Plus, it comes with the binding
starter pack. How awesome is that?
