Product Description:
The Formax ReadyCombM+ Manual Punch and Comb Binding Machine is a fully manual office binding system that handles both punching and comb binding with lever-activated controls. Built for organizations with low to medium volume punch and binding needs, it punches up to 12,000 sheets per hour, binds up to 200 booklets per hour, and secures booklets up to 480 sheets thick. Because comb bound documents can have pages added or removed without damage to the document or the binding, the ReadyCombM+ works well for materials that are revised over time.
A precision vertical punching system relies on gravity to hold every sheet in place, producing consistent hole placement even on thicker document sets. The specially hardened punch pins are easy to reach and can be disengaged individually without tools, preventing partially punched holes when working with different paper sizes. Binding is handled by a lever-activated comb open and close mechanism with closure control, and user-friendly adjustment knobs make quick changes to page size, margin depth, and binding dimensions. Heavy-duty all-metal construction, low-force levers, and an easy-empty sliding waste tray make the ReadyCombM+ a dependable comb binding machine for offices, schools, and print rooms that do not require electric punching.
