About this machine
This James Burn BB43 is a used folding machine — also widely known as a Wire-O binding machine — built in 1996 and currently available in the Netherlands. James Burn is a well-established British manufacturer with a long history of producing binding and finishing equipment for the print and publishing industries.
The BB43 operates as a semi-automatic Wire-O binding closer, designed to close Wire-O spines across a maximum binding width of 430 mm. It handles both 2:1 and 3:1 pitch Wire-O spines in diameters ranging from 1/4 inch up to 1 inch, making it suitable for a broad range of book formats and document thicknesses. At rated capacity, the machine can process up to 1,000 books per hour, giving it meaningful throughput for commercial print finishing environments.
It is worth noting that this unit is not fitted with a calendar hanger feeder, so it is not configured for calendar production requiring hangers. For standard Wire-O-bound books, notebooks, planners, and similar documents, the machine is fully applicable and comes complete with a full set of closing tools covering all common Wire-O sizes in both pitch configurations.
Power requirements are 230 V / 50 Hz at 3 A, and the machine additionally requires a compressed air supply. Its footprint is approximately 2,100 × 1,100 × 1,500 mm, and it weighs around 650 kg. The seller reports that the machine has been regularly maintained and is fully operational and ready for use. It is offered at €9,000.
