Professional on-demand hard covers and cases Fastbind Casematic a46a is the first stand-alone Fastbind case maker. It is intended for very small to extra-large format hard covers: you produce cases from under A6 (5”x4”) to over 45 x 45 cm (18”x18”) under one minute with no set-up time. Make book covers, ring binders, luxury cases, wall art or photo album covers. This is the perfect case making solution for all your on-demand, short and medium runs finishing needs.
Easy, fast and accurate With the ergonomic Fastbind Casematic a46a, the case making process is intuitive: place the printed tacking sheet on the table, position the boards, cut the four corners, and fold the sides. Thanks to the light table, the position of your cover is always precise, and the spine text set exactly in the correct position. The patented support shelf prevents mistakes: you place the boards accurately the first time and reduce the risk of air bubbles. Quick change spacers allow you to change the width of the gap between the spine and the boards.
Smart automation The case making process is further eased by clever automation. You can adjust the brightness of the light and the size of the illuminated area for shorter or longer covers. The vacuum maintains the sheet in place during positioning. Once the boards are placed, the guides are automatically lifted, and the air table assist moving the cover around. Then, as you place the cover in the folding unit, it will clamp the edges for you. Making a hard cover has never been easier.
