The System 5000 is a highly versatile finishing system able to offer straightforward booklet product, fast change over from one job to another and also to adapt as needs change in the future. It can collate and stitch up to a 100-page magazine with a true three knife trim finish. Intelligent feeding on the collator allows the system to assemble customised reports and similar products according to information accessed from a bar code added at the prepress stage. The System 5000 is upgradeable with extra stitching heads and has the speed to produce 5,000 A5 booklets an hour.

The touch screen panel guides an unskilled operator through set up and operation of the System 5000. The large capacity bins and reliable suction feeding system allow the unit to run unattended, with doubles or mis-feeds automatically ejected into a reject bin. The feeding system can cope with both litho and digitally printed sheets. The bookletmaking unit has 12 memory positions, making job changeover a push-button affair.
