One thing that the Duomac-421 is missing

  • One thing that the Duomac-421 is missing is a spiral coil inserter. Users who need to bind a few documents with coil will have no problem spinning the coils on by hand. However, inserting coils by hand is very time consuming and tedious. Organizations that need to bind documents Nike Shox OZ,using 4:1 pitch coil on a daily or weekly basis should definitely consider purchasing a modular coil inserter. Akiles recommends that this machine be purchased and used in conjunction with the Akiles Roll @ Coil.
  • Because 2.5:1 pitch coils are so large and there is a slight variance in the pitch between the holes and the coil, they will need to be inserted by hand. This isn't a huge deal since most large coil books are assembled by hand anyway. Large sized 4:1 pitch books with also need to be inserted by hand.
  • Each of the three binding styles offered by this machine have limitations in the size of books that they can bind. Four to one spiral coil is the most versatile and can be used to bind documents that are between 6mm and 50mm. However, inserting large sized 4:1 pitch coils onto your books is much like trying to insert a slinky onto the edge of a book. Two to one pitch wire binding spines are available in sizes ranging from 1/4" up to 1-1/4" (1-1/2" spines are available but the wire closer on the Duomac 421 isn't compatible with spines that large). Spiral coils that are 2.5:1 pitch (also known as 0.400 pitch coils) are available in sizes from 20mm up to 56mm and use larger filament to make inserting easier.
  • The DuoMac 421 has a lot of great features. However, including so many features on one binding machine has the tendency to make that machine fairly large and somewhat confusing. Although the Duomac421 is clearly labeled , it can be a little bit intimidating to inexperienced users.

Recommendation:

  • The DuoMac 421 is the only combination binding system that can handle both 2:1 double loop wire and 4:1 spiral coil.
  • It gives users the ability to choose between multiple binding styles for the documents and reports that they produce.
  • Both spiral coil binding and twin loop wire provide the ability to finish documents in a highly professional manner. Plus this system allows you to bind almost any thickness of document that you can image.
  • However, the Duomac-421 is still a manual binding machine is really best suited for small and medium sized organizations. High volume Nike Shox Sale,users and large organizations should consider a interchangeable die modular binding punch with separate finishing equipment.
