The Case Freccia CM Book Binder is a used book binding machine — also commonly known as a Case maker — designed to produce the hard covers used in casebound book production. Case, operating under the Smyth brand heritage in the bookbinding machinery sector, has long been associated with precision equipment for the graphic arts and print finishing industries.
This automatic Case maker dates from approximately 1980 and carries serial number 409. It is currently located in Germany. The machine handles open cover formats ranging from a minimum of 110 × 155 mm up to a maximum of 405 × 560 mm, giving it considerable versatility across both smaller and larger hardcover formats. Backlining width — the spine reinforcement strip applied during Case making — can be set anywhere between 8 mm and 95 mm, accommodating everything from slim volumes to thick, heavily spined books.
At full mechanical speed the machine is capable of producing up to 30 covers per minute, making it a productive unit for medium to high volume Case making operations. Both the Case making process and the turning-in operation — the step in which the covering material is folded and pressed over the boards — are fully automatic, reducing manual intervention and supporting consistent output quality.
