This listing is for a used book binder — sometimes referred to as a perfect binder — a type of machine used in commercial and trade bookbinding to assemble and bind gathered signatures or loose sheets into finished books with glued spines. Wohlenberg is a well-established German manufacturer with a long history of producing high-quality bookbinding and paper-processing equipment for the printing and publishing industries.
The line offered here is a complete, integrated binding system comprising four interconnected machines. The central unit is a Wohlenberg Master 7000, a 19-clamp binder equipped with a cover feeder, a gauzing station for spine reinforcement, and both cold glue and PUR gluing units — meaning the machine can apply either conventional cold glue or the stronger, more flexible polyurethane reactive adhesive depending on the job requirement. Two nipping stations press and consolidate the bound books after gluing, and a conveyor system moves finished product through and out of the line.
Feeding the binder is a Wohlenberg Sprinter 7010 (serial number 163), a 20-station gatherer that collates signatures in sequence before they enter the binder. It is fitted with a criss-cross delivery system and an Optigraf sheet control system for inline quality monitoring of gathered sections.
Completing the line is a Wohlenberg Trim-tec 60i three-knife trimmer, built in 2006, which trims the bound books to their finished dimensions on three sides. A stacker is also included to handle and consolidate the finished trimmed output.
The entire system is located in France and is available in used condition, dating from 2000 for the binder and gatherer, with the trimmer added in 2006.
