Add the new Tamerica OPTIMUS-46i Coil Binding Machine with Electric Inserter to your small office environment and start binding your own books today! Sheets load into this machine horizontally, parallel with the tabletop and the machine dies punch downward. The OPTIMUS-46i comes equipped with disengaging pins, which allow you to select where holes are or are not to be punched, giving you the freedom to punch additional sheet sizes beyond standard 8-1/2 in. x 11 in. Letter size paper. Its open throat and edge guide also assist with placing your punched holes exactly where you need them. When you're ready to bind your book, you can twist a plastic spiral coil through your sheets manually or use the electric coil inserter on board the OPTIMUS-46i binding machine. To operate the inserter, simply press the foot pedal. The rapidly spinning coil roller will twist your coil through the remaining holes in your sheet - saving you time! Crimp both ends of the plastic coil to lock your pages into your book using the included coil crimping pliers.
