Morgana

With an increasing number of printing systems available to handle larger cut-sheet sizes, A4 landscape and oversize booklets can now be produced easily and cost-effectively with these new products. The new BM5035 and BM5050 products deliver these new applications by handling sheets of up to 620mm in length, enabling the production of the ever-popular A4 landscape format.

The BM5050 has been engineered for mid-to-high volume customers with the highest quality and functionality currently available. This booklet makers can staple and fold up to 50 sheets of 80gsm to create booklets of up to 200-pages. The BM5035 is capable of handling 35 sheets to create up to 140-page booklets.

An even lower cost per copy can be achieved with the BM5050S, with its four stitching heads. This configuration will enable users to finish jobs of up to 50 sheets, that have been imposed two-up on a sheet, for higher productivity and efficiency. Maximum paper size on the BM5000 machines is 320mm by 620mm.

Customers are demanding more media versatility from digital print, and Morgana recognises the need for printers to be equipped to follow that demand with ever more sophisticated solutions. This latest range of Morgana products have been designed from the ground up to work with today’s coated, uncoated and textured paper stocks.

Both product ranges incorporate true stapling for high-quality stitching from spooled wire, providing some 50,000 stitches per spool.

Offline versions of the products will be available from Morgana Systems whilst inline versions from Plockmatic will be available through the leading digital engine suppliers.
