The Fastbind Elite Perfect Binder offers you the ability to perfectly bind both hard and soft cover books. The Elite is ideal for print/copy shops, publishers, binderies, school yearbooks and photographers. The end result is perfect binding that is strong, square, and affordable.
The Fastbind Elite features a "Paper Grain Opening" (PGO) system. The PGO opens the paper grain with very little noise and there is no paper dust, unlike other spine rougheners that grind the spine creating lots of noise and dust. The operator controls the number of PGO passes to assure that they will make a solid bind.
It’s so easy to use anyone can create the highest quality books and reports in minutes. There are no set-up times or book format adjustments. It self-adjusts for book thickness from 2 to 400 pages.

Optional Accessories:
The optional cover trimmer is very easy to use and eliminates the need to measure and set-up a cumbersome guillotine trimmer. Slip the cover excess into the slot, rest the book block on the rail and then pull the rotary trimmer handle across the book for a perfect cover trim.
The optional hardcover toolkit consists of a hardcover nipping bar and a special paper guide. It allows you to bind hardcover books with your Fastbind binding machine. The special shape of the bar gives professional look to the finished book.
