The Duplo System 3000 Book Binder is a book binding machine — sometimes referred to as a booklet maker or saddle-stitching line — used to collate, stitch, fold, and trim printed sheets into finished booklets and brochures. Duplo is a well-established manufacturer of document finishing equipment, producing machinery for print shops, commercial printers, and in-plant print environments worldwide.
This machine, built in 2007 and located in France, is offered in used condition and is described by the seller as being in good working order. It forms part of a complete booklet finishing line combining System 3000 and System 5000 components, with a rated output of 400,000 prints per hour.
The collating section consists of three DC8/32 gathering drums, providing a total of 24 collating stations under the System 3000 configuration. Stitching is performed by Hohner sewing heads, which are widely regarded in the industry for reliability and consistent stitch quality. The line incorporates a DBM 500 booklet maker (System 5000), a frontal trimmer in the form of the DBM 500 T (System 5000), and a long delivery section with pile delivery for gathered booklets.
The system handles a broad range of paper weights, from 40 to 300 g/m², with an optional extension noted. Sheet format runs from a minimum of 120 × 148 mm — or 105 × 148 mm with the available option — up to a maximum of 350 × 500 mm, making it suitable for a wide variety of booklet sizes from small pamphlets to larger document formats.
