Fastback Binding Enhancement

Make a complete binding centre with our range of speciality equipment. Produce gorgeous Perfectback books, hardcovers and photobooks, and decorate your covers with stunning foil printing

Foilfast Printer

Foilfast Printer As small as an inkjet printer, you can simply design and print out beautiful foil covers at a fraction of the cost of traditional foil blocking. The Foilfast will feed multiple pages, and is designed to work with our heavyweight Comp Covers, as well as clear PVC and other smooth surfaced stock. With Foilfast’s simple drop-in foil cartridges that come in seven vibrant colours, multi-coloured artwork can be produced in one pass. Colours are: red, blue, green, gold, silver, black and white.

PowisPrinter

PowisPrinter Spine Printer Add eyecatching foil titles to your strip-bound spines and make them stand out on the shelf with the simple-to-operate PowisPrinter. Foil colours exactly match those of the Foilfast Printer for a consistent look. Simply design your spine, feed in your binding strip and print. Use your own fonts and logos to design the spine on your computer using the PowisPrinter software, or use the separate keyboard supplied with the machine to use the printer without a computer - choose from 11 different fonts, three orientations (horizontal, vertical and stacked), and point sizes 8 – 84 points.

Scoring Machine

Scoring Machine The Scoring Machine is designed for making covers for Perfectback binding with the Fastback 15xs, creating perfect scores every time on your card covers. It’s so simple and easy to operate. Just place your book between the Book Thickness rings and adjust the score width to match and you’re ready to go. The transparent die holder lets you see exactly where the score goes, and the patented Centring Guide eliminates any guesswork. Make double or single scores with a choice of two dies. The ergonomic design, with soft grip handle and low-resistance lever makes longer runs easy.

Hardcover Guide

Hardcover Guide For making Hardcovers or Photobooks, the Fastback Hardcover Assembly Guide enables consistent alignment of the book block with the hardcover in seconds for professional results. So easy to use, it only takes a few minutes to learn. With no set-up, you can make one book or a thousand whenever you want, so there is no waste.

Splitter

Paper Splitter The Splitter is sold as part of the Photobook Work Cell. This new paper preparation system means that high-gloss, coated papers can now be bound into super-strong photo albums without stitching. Micro-blades open the paper ends so the adhesive attaches firmly to the paper fibres rather than the coating, and it handles paper with full edge-to-edge bleeds. The automatic jogging feature keeps paper evenly aligned during the process, and the filter system helps trap paper particles.

Powis Stitcher

Powis Paper Stitcher Part of the Studio Photobook System, the Powis Stitcher is an electric, tabletop machine which edge-stitches almost any type of paper, before binding in the Fastback binder. The staples are flat so do not protrude above the paper surface. The stitching table ensures precise stitch alignment, and the machine comes with a foot pedal for fast and accurate operation.
