FORMAX SQUARE iT2 SQUAREBACK BOOKLET FINISHER

The Square iT2 Squareback Booklet Finisher is a compact, user-friendly unit that combines two functions in a single pass: it squares the binding and trims the face edge. It’s the perfect complement to print shops, in-plant print finishing operations and offices that want the look and feel of a perfect-bound book, at a fraction of the cost. Getting professional results from an existing staple-and-fold finisher has never been easier.
Squarebacked booklets lie flat, making them easier to pack, store and ship, with the added option of printing on the spine. Operators can choose the amount of square fold pressure to produce the ideal squareback finish based on booklet thickness.
