About Duplo 350 Digital Booklet Maker System

Built around the DSF-2200, a heavy-duty sheet feeding system. Providing the user with the power, reliability and flexibility to handle a wide range of materials with consistent results. Equipped with an 8 belt feeding mechanism which enables the feed head to make contact with a large area of the sheet. Additionally, each bin is equipped with three distinct DC fans: firstly, one generates suction for feeding; secondly, another facilitates front air separation; and finally, the third provides side air. Combined they ensure optimal paper separation and reliable feeding. The Duplo AMS (Air Management System) allows the operator to fine tune air control for each feed tray.

A PC Controller manages the system. This automatically sets up jobs within a few seconds without the need for any tools. The operator can create and save jobs with ease for future recall. State of the art Ultrasonic Technology comes as standard. Moreover, the ultrasonic sensor detects air gaps between the sheets when a double feed occurs, regardless of ink colour or paper density. This enables the operator to feed different paper weights within the same job.

Integrates the Duplo DBM350T

To the left is the DBM-350 Booklet maker and Trimmer, Duplo’s fully automatic mid-range booklet-maker. The DBM-350 meets the needs of a busy digital print environment conscious of budget expenditure, but also meets the demand to produce a broad range of quality material. With this in mind, its typical production is a wide variety of booklet sizes of A4, A5, A6 and landscape A5. Additionally, custom sizes and hand feeding capabilities are also standard.

Stitching heads provide a heavier duty cycle and lower running costs compared to staples. Subsequently, you can also file the booklet in a ring binder by using loop form stitches. An integrated spine press creates flatter books for a better finish. Whilst the fore-edge trimmer unit provides one final neat finish to the booklet.

Integrity & Security

You can equip the system with features like Optical Mark Recognition (OMR) and optional Barcode Kits that read 1D and 2D barcodes. The kit includes two readers for each feed tray and uses them to check the integrity of each set by reading a printed barcode on every processed sheet. Consequently, this secures the production process by ensuring accurate results. Undoubtedly, these features are particularly vital for personalised and variable production.
