Antaro Digital
Next generation perfect binding
The Antaro Digital stands for state-of-the-art perfect binding technology and maximum flexibility in digital book production. With up to 2,000 cycles per hour, it combines precision and productivity – ideal for highly varying orders with block thicknesses up to 20 mm. Developed specifically for on-demand production, it convinces with automatic changeovers and minimal waste. The swing clamp system ensures safe transport of the book blocks, while the integrated InfiniTrim trimming robot enables end-to-end, fully automated production. The barcode-controlled assignment of the block cover and an intelligent ejection system minimize errors – perfect for the requirements of smart, networked production.
Highly automated – to the individual book
The Antaro Digital produces with a continuously running swivel clamp system. The book blocks are transported in horizontally, standing on their spines and are reliably retained by the six clamps, which are always fully open. Furthermore, the large clamp pitch of 610 mm ensures the continuous production of brochures with a block thickness variance of up to 20 mm. The thicknesses are always changed over fully automatically.
Extremely process-reliable production
In the digital version, the newly designed drum cover feeder combined with a downstream storage wheel guarantees that covers are separated reliably. A barcode reader ensures that the book block and cover fit together securely. Used in combination with the standard cover ejection positioned before the scoring device, the Antaro Digital effectively reduces waste and in doing so achieves a whole new level of productivity.
Minimal space and personnel requirements
The newly developed Antaro Digital can be used as a nearline or inline system, thereby covering a broad range of customer requirements. Thanks to its compact design, it realises a unique output rate over a comparatively small area. In addition, compared to current single-book production solutions, the Antaro Digital achieves the same output with fewer than half the operators.
