Binding - Saddle-Stitch

Many, many years ago there was a children’s book titled “The Little Engine That Could.” Somewhat like the little engine, IBIS Bindery Systems Ltd. was founded in the U.K. in 1999 by a small group of bindery systems engineers. They were the first firm to design a saddle stitching system that was specifically designed to process digitally printed sheets printed on continuous toner or inkjet printers

Spiel Associates (Booth 220) is showcasing the widest line of perfect binders in their biggest booth ever in Chicago.

DOME is partnering with Muller Martini. The Primera MC will deliver increased capacity to its finishing department.

The overall shrinkage of the print market has challenged dealers like never before. A smaller potential customer base forces them to diversify their product lines further, and to try to enter new potential markets. This is far from easy, as (successfully) entering a new market — especially against existing competitors — takes lots of time and money. And this also works against new suppliers trying to enter the U.S. market.

So, why did I title this small piece “bragging rights?” Well, when we (IBIS) attended the awards dinner on Wednesday at our first Inkjet Summit, it turned out that we had been nominated for the best case study in the publishing segment. We didn’t WIN, mind you, but we got a nomination, in company with some of the biggest industry vendors. It was a great way to end our first Inkjet Summit.

IBIS has announced that it will be sponsoring the upcoming Inkjet Summit in Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla.

With so many options, it can be tough to determine the best binding method for your project.

Heidelberg together with Müller Martini and Polar will present at Hunkeler Innovationdays.

At the 2017 Hunkeler Innovationdays exhibit, IBIS will display the Smart-binder SB-3 Plus HS.

Hunkeler will hold its 12th Innovationdays in Lucerne, Switzerland, at the Messe Lucerne exhibition facility, Feb. 20-23.
