The MKW Rapid SFT 350 is a used book binder — sometimes referred to as a saddle stitcher or wire stitching machine — a type of bindery equipment used to collate, stitch, and trim printed signatures into finished booklets, brochures, magazines, and similar saddle-bound products. MKW is a manufacturer associated with the print finishing and bookbinding industry, producing machinery for commercial print and bindery operations.
This 2008 machine, located in Germany, is equipped with two Hohner 48/S stitching heads, a well-regarded wire stitching component widely used in the industry for reliable, consistent staple placement. The stitching system is integrated with a front-cut infeed section measuring 1.50 metres in length by 2.0 metres in width, providing the feed and gathering capacity needed to support continuous production runs.
The machine handles a format range from a minimum of 10 × 14 cm up to a maximum of 35 × 50 cm, giving it flexibility across a broad spread of standard booklet and brochure sizes. Quick format adjustment is included, reducing changeover time between jobs. The front trim section operates with a minimum trim of 6 cm over both the upper and lower knife, and blow-off air is fitted at the knife to keep the cutting area clear of waste and trimmed material. An adjustable pressing device is also fitted, helping to ensure a clean, flat spine on finished products.
The machine is offered in used condition and is currently situated in Germany.
