PB-15 Automatic Paper 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.
