PB-15 Modular Drilling
The PB-15 is the highest quality automatic feeding, jogging, drilling and delivery system on the market. You can efficiently drill stitched or folded products, perfect bound books, or loose-leaf with one operator. For example, drilling piles of loose-leaf reach an output of up to 1,500 piles per hour. This is an increase of up to ten times the speed of other methods
Ideal for multi-hole drilling for wire-o, this system combines maximum output with dramatically reduced set-up time. The only manual setup is positioning the heads when changing the hole pattern. Paper size and spine margin of the holes are programmed and set automatically by the push of a button.
No other paper drilling machine automates the drilling process like the PB-15.

Duerselen PB-15 In-Line Drilling System.
The bindery manager stated “since it was installed, we have enjoyed up to a 30% increase in production using this revolutionary system. Because it is capable of doing 2-1, 3-1 and 4-1 applications with the ability to drill up to 2” piles at a time as compared to a punch, our overall productivity is way up. Further, because piles are automatically jogged and moved to the drilling heads, we are able to drill pre-collated books with tabs so there is no need to use slip-sheets and re-collate.”
“Cooling and lubricating as well as stroke and spindle speed control allow us to do flawless drilling jobs faster than ever.”
