The Bourg Document Finisher (BDF-e) is a high-end, compact and fully automated booklet maker. All parameters are controlled by a user-friendly color touchscreen interface in which stitching, folding, and trimming operations are completed in a single enclosed unit. This guarantees set integrity and a maximum speed of 4,200 booklets/hour.
The BDF-e offers you great flexibility! You can start using it Off-Line and later decide to use it In-Line. This booklet maker is connectable with a BSF and seamlessly integrates the benefits of Off-Line and In-Line finishing, ideal for customers hesitating between Off-Line and In-Line finishing (see the description of the BSF). The BDF-e can be directly connected to multiple print engines such as Kodak, Océ/Canon and Xerox. It is the perfect choice for in-plants or commercial print shops that need to produce booklets in production runs from one to thousands.
Final dimensions of booklets produced by the BDF-e range from 76 x 120 mm (2.99 X 4.72 in) up to 260 mm x 356 mm (10.23 x 14.01 in) to a maximum speed of 4200 sets/hour.
The BDF-e is able to stitch fold trim up to 22 sheets, stitches up to 55 sheets, and folds up to 22 sheets (88 pages) booklets without scuffing or marking.
The BDF-e is compatible with several C.P. Bourg machines.
With the Bourg Sheet Feeder (BSF), for example, the BDF-e can be connected directly in In-Line and Near-Line mode to multiple print engines such as Xeror and Océ/Canon and Kodak and can quickly produce booklets.
Connected In-Line to the Bourg Bleed Crease Module (BCM-e), the BCM-e will perform the highest quality knife creasing, top and bottom bleeding. Adding the Square Edge Module (SQE) to the configuration will transform traditional stitch-fold-trim booklets into square edged booklets. Booklets produced are flat and easy to stack.
