About this machine
The Schmedt PRÄKANT #00205 is a shrinking machine — also known as a turning-in machine — used in bookbinding and case making. It is designed to fold and press the covering material over the edges of a book case, securing the turn-ins neatly and consistently. Schmedt is a well-regarded German manufacturer of bookbinding and finishing equipment, supplying machinery and tools to trade binderies, publishers, and craft bookbinders.
This particular machine is configured for double-action turning-in, meaning it processes opposing edges in a single cycle, which is suited to efficient casemaking workflows. It handles cases up to 60 × 60 cm, accommodating a wide range of book formats from small volumes through to larger hardcover editions. Operation is manual and foot-pedal controlled, which gives the operator direct command over the timing of each turning-in cycle — an arrangement valued in short-run or craft production where careful, piece-by-piece handling is important. The machine was manufactured in 1991 and is offered in used condition.
