This listing features a Kolbus KM 490 industrial binding machine, manufactured in 1991. It is designed for binding with a maximum paper size of 37.0 cm in length and 28.0 cm in width (approximately 14 x 11 inches). The machine is a large-scale, robust unit with a metal housing, built to handle demanding binding tasks in an industrial setting.
The Kolbus KM 490 includes 16 feeders equipped with a double sheet detector, although these feeders are currently dismantled. It is equipped with an end sheet unit and an automatic sew blocks feeder to facilitate efficient binding processes. The machine supports multiple glue application methods, including spine cold glue, spine hot glue, and side hot glue, allowing for versatile binding options.
Additional features include a gauzing station and two pressing units, which contribute to the quality and durability of the finished bound products. The unit is configured with 32 clamps, providing secure holding during the binding process.
The machine appears to be used, exhibiting some visible wear and dust accumulation, which is typical for equipment of this age and industrial use. Several control levers and mechanical components are present on the side of the machine, with protective metal covers partially open, revealing some internal parts. These aspects indicate the machine's complex mechanical design and industrial-grade construction.
This Kolbus KM 490 is complemented by a 1993 Kolbus TR 160 circular knife and a 1991 Kolbus HD 140 trimmer, which are commonly used alongside the binder for finishing bookbinding projects. Overall, this equipment package is suitable for professional binding operations requiring reliable, versatile machinery capable of handling various binding techniques and paper sizes up to 37 x 28 cm.
