Layflat IND530-2000 RF is a high-speed, fully automatic book block system that produces layflat book blocks from single sheets. It can create promotional books not only by gluing paper back to back, but also by inserting cardboard between the sheets. It is an all-in-one station, offering creasing, folding, and an inline automatic book press. The system is ideal for professional promotional books.

Casing-In IND410-420 is a fully automatic casing-in machine. The hard cover and book block are automatically fed into the machine. The machine sprays the hotmelt and assembles the cover on the bookblock in the center position. The compact machine, which includes a heat and joint-forming station,  can produce up to 7 books per minute.

The  IND350-200 is an optional in-line softcover finishing attachment that automates the creation of books and brochures with softcovers.
