About this machine
This Kolbus BUCHSTRASSE is a book binder — sometimes referred to as a casing-in machine or book casing machine — used in hardcover book production to insert the sewn or glued book block into its cover, forming a finished bound volume. Kolbus is a well-established German manufacturer with a long history of producing bookbinding and book production machinery for the printing and publishing industries.
The unit offered here is a complete casing-in line, comprising two integrated components: the casing-in machine itself, built in 1961, and a pressing unit built in 1973. The pressing unit is an essential part of the line, applying pressure to the cased-in books to ensure a firm, accurate bond between block and cover before the books move on to further finishing.
A significant modernisation programme was carried out in 2021 and 2022, during which the machine's drive system and safety equipment were fully renewed. This refurbishment brings the mechanical and electrical condition of the line considerably closer to current operational standards despite the age of its core components. The machine is described as operational and available for inspection at its location in Germany at any time.
Output speed is rated at 500 to 800 copies per hour, with the achievable rate depending on the number of personnel operating the line. The machine is being offered from the seller's Berlin facility.
