Allows the transport and stapling process to proceed normally

Why is it that the binding operations of so many sheet-fed commercial printing companies will always delay the completion of the financial period? Moreover, staples, foldings, hardcovers, thick bindings and the like do not seem to have much temptation. Therefore, people naturally prefer to invest in equipment such as prepress and printing. Perhaps some businesses are taking a wait-and-see attitude and looking forward to improving the production capacity of binding equipment. This article focuses on saddle stitching issues (5,000-13,000 staples/hour) at a medium-stapling factory. But before evaluating the operation of our stapler, we should consider how to handle our binding equipment well. The bottleneck problem of bookbinding equipment is very complicated. In some cases, the bottleneck problem of bookbinding is actually a matter of logical stagnation. For example, if we send a job out for processing, the transport problem slows the cycle of job completion. This is not a bottleneck problem for equipment. It can only be regarded as a management problem. If the gutter often suffers from a delay cycle, then there are three issues that can be considered: equipment failure, bookbinding preparation time and equipment adjustments, and material anomalies. Maintenance If the stapler is improperly maintained, it can also cause a lot of downtime and affect the productivity of the equipment. Moreover, the problem of equipment maintenance is a matter of corporate culture. If the operator only judges the finished product during the operation of the equipment to determine whether the equipment is faulty, the result of this culture is to encourage the personnel not to do relevant maintenance of the equipment. If we are very concerned about quality issues in our corporate documents, this situation will be avoided during routine maintenance. For example, the process of tool change and leveling takes a long time. Some bookbinding managers recommend deep cryogenic treatment of the knife. If handled correctly, low temperatures will change the knife's microstructure and the knife will become stronger. In addition, experts recommend a one-minute judgment method to improve the press's preparation time. This one-minute judgment began to be developed for the automation industry. This approach breaks down all tasks into external and internal parts. Internal tasks are completed when the equipment is down; external tasks can be completed while the equipment is running. Prepress preparation is one way to reduce internal tasks. Before the preparation time begins, first determine whether all the tools and materials used in the preparation work are in the correct or compatible state. If so, then look again and see if everything is ready and available. Finally, are all the tools and materials operating correctly? It is best to instruct the operators to perform procedural operations while they are training. Most of the equipment operations now tend to be automated, and the process of automation is more evident. At present, when advanced equipment is in operation, all repetitive settings can be stored on one disk so that the disk can be run repeatedly in different jobs. For example, when previously manually entering data, the full preparation time was 10-15 minutes, and since the disk was used to store the data, the preparation time may be reduced to 5 minutes. Normalization of the feeding process If there is a problem with the feeding process, there is definitely a problem when stapling. Professionals believe that folding and feeding processes account for 80% of the saddle stitching process. However, if the booklet is damaged, curled, and torn, the book is not tightly attached or curled when folded; if the paper is uneven or the book sticker is not joined properly, it will cause malfunction. These faults occur from time to time at work, and if possible, try to lower the book speed as much as possible. The book image recognition system can assist the paper feeding process. This system uses a photosensor integrated inside the feeder to optically scan the upcoming signature, test the specified part of the book and test it with the test results stored in the system at the beginning of the production process. Compared. If there is a problem with the location, or if the book is not at the right angle, or if there is a problem with the print, registration, or folding, it will be checked and removed from the production process. Best Graphics earlier introduced the Best Osako System 368 system, which is suitable for mid-range staplers. It functions as a central console that controls screen speed, total number of bindings, fault displays, and fault warnings. Rosback recently introduced the Lynx 724 stapler, designed to work between 500-32,000 bindings per day. It has a four-slot vertical feeder to handle each pre-inserted signature. These benches can load 9-inch paper baskets. Heidelberg's Stitchmaster 270 mid-range stapler has an optional feature that allows the system to be configured with either a vertical or horizontal slot. The vertical configuration can combine more signatures and reduce the number of delivery processes. Moreover, this device also reduces the operator's troubles because the operator can decide which configuration is best suited for each type of job. Full Service Mailers eventually installed a 9-slot Feni-more-Vijuk 920 SideWinder machine, which was a single-sheet finisher and a booklet production machine. Full Service is primarily a postal company, but it also uses a dual-press to make short-form booklets. This SideWnder machine uses a continuous rotary vertical paper feed system. Its paper slot system can be automatically adjusted according to the job size to accommodate different paper and book thicknesses. The binding speed of this SideWinder device is 5,000 volumes/hour, which can generally reach 3,500 volumes - 4,000 volumes. Vijuk introduced its Purlux 321-T saddle stitching system, which has a stapling speed of 10,000 volumes per hour and can be carried from the top to the bottom. In this way, the production process is continuous. The speed of each feeder can be selected at 1:1 or 1:2. The increase in the efficiency of printing plants is mainly the pressure on the binding equipment. Increasing the speed of the binding equipment will greatly shorten the output cycle of the printing plant and greatly increase the production efficiency of the factory. Installing accessories such as counters, magazine sticks, and trim removal systems at the back end of the binder can save some time. The punching device is also a very fashionable option. For example, the punching device is very useful for calendar installation. Because of this, the stapler adds more needs for the binding performance. In general, training is always a very random matter. However, this is the best way to keep the machine running. If the operator does not know how to operate correctly, it will cause many problems at work and may even cause damage to the equipment. In the end, remembering that speed is not necessarily good. It is even more important to remove the book sticker from the slot and put it on the shelf. We only care if the product sent from the factory is clean and of good quality. Users simply do not care about how fast the device can operate.
