The CMT-130TC is a hydraulic single-knife book trimmer with robotized book rotation that provides the same functionality as a three-knife trimmer but at lower cost and with consistent product quality.

This fully automated three-side book trimmer finishing solution is designed for on-demand and short-run digitally printed perfect-bound books. It is capable of fulfilling a combination of both Off-Line and In-Line feeding systems with the Bourg Binder 3x02 family.

The CMT-130TC has been upgraded with five other new features: (1) a 26.7 cm (10.5 in) color touchscreen display; (2) an integrated barcode reading system; (3) a precise knife depth control; (4) an automatic size detection of untrimmed books ; (5) and a live graphical display of each book.

All new benefits in details

Integrated In-Line and Off-Line feeding systems with the Bourg Binder BB3x02 family. With the proper configuration of feeding components, the CMT-130TC is capable of automatically switching, as needed, between feeding books directly from an In-Line Bourg B3x02 perfect binder OR from a manually loaded Off-Line book pile feeder system. If one system is waiting for its next book, the other system can feed the trimmer to maximize production throughput.
Intuitive 10.5” (26,7 cm) color touchscreen display provides a clear & easy-to-read image of the trimming system. Automatic starting book size detection simplifies the required job parameters making job entry quick and easy.
Integrated barcode reading system’s 1D/2D enables true fully-automated book-of-one production by automating job set-up.
Precision knife depth control assures consistent and complete control of knife stroke depth and reduces wear to cut sticks as well as the need for continued knife adjustments.
Automatic size detection of pre-trimmed books means only three dimensions are required for job programming.
Live graphical display of each book as it travels through the system.
