GBC CI12 Electric Coil Inserter with Cut and Crimp Knives - 323000000

Plastic color coil binding is one of GBC’s most impressive lay-flat binding solutions. Color coil balances form with function, creating professional documents that would stand the demands of everyday use. Documents lie completely flat when opened. Pages are easily accessible and tightly secured – perfect for documents used frequently. The bright plastic coil threads through documents up to one inch or 25 mm thick for secure fastening. Pages conveniently wrap all the way around the spine. Best of all, color coil holds its shape, bouncing back when compressed. In order to produce attractive color coil documents, you need a versatile production system from GBC; one that’s flexible enough to bind documents from five to 250 sheets thick, from five to 12 inches or from 12 to 30 cm long. You need the CI12.

The CI12 is so easy to use that anyone can quickly become an expert at coil binding. First, start the plastic color coil in the first few punched holes. Then, grasp the book with both hands and lightly position the coil element against the rollers. The coil will spin quickly through the document. Next, place the book on the crimping station. One quick pull on the crimping handle and both ends of the coil are cut and crimped. It’s this easy to bind color coil documents of all sizes. The CI12 offers two important features over competitive systems which contribute to productivity. First, the CI12 is equipped with two rollers rather than one. Two long continuous rollers offer greater control and faster insertion. Other systems drive coil with a single, much thinner roller, resulting in less control. Second, the CI12 features an automatic crimping station with precise, heavy-duty cutting and crimping knives. Once the crimper is adjusted for the proper size, documents are cut and crimped on both ends with a simple operation of the handle. The precision knives ensure a good crimp which, in turn, ensures the coil does not spin out of the book during shipping and handling. GBC knows that you expect your production equipment to be rugged and durable. That’s why we built the CI12 to last. Ultra-tough, solid steel parts and other rugged components are used extensively throughout the machine, resulting in unbeatable durability and long life. Greater durability means fewer breakdowns and significantly improved reliability. In the unlikely event that a problem does occur, you can count on GBC’s network of highly trained service technicians to quickly get your machine back up and running. This means that you can depend on the CI12 even during crunch times when you can’t afford downtime and work stoppages. The CI12 offers a number of adjustment points for fine-tuning the inserter’s operation. The rollers adjust to three different positions to allow for maximum roller contact for all coil sizes. Position number one is for the smallest coils, five to 13 mm. The second position is for coils 14 to 22 mm. And the third position is for coils 25 mm and larger.

The CI12 offers a number of adjustment points for fine tuning the inserter's operation. The rollers adjust to three different positions to allow for maximum roller contact for all coil sizes. Position number 1 is for the smallest coils, 5 to 12 millimetres. The second position is for coils 14 to 22 millimetres and the third position is for coils 25 millimetres and larger.

The cut and crimping knives also adjust for a variety of coil and document sizes. To adjust the knives for a different book size, simply place the left edge against the side guide. Next, adjust the right knife assembly by moving it left or right so that the coil from the last hole from the right fits into the groove. Tighten the knob and your length setting is complete.

You can also adjust the knife assembly for a variety of coil sizes. Using the tool provided, position the knife assembly so that the centre blade is at the midpoint of the coil. A knife assembly for coils 8 millimetres in diameter is also provided. Once you've adjusted the crimping knives for your particular job, you can insert, cut and crimp coils in seconds.
