ABSTRACT:
A production sequence for binding pamphlets, catalogs, books and the like. In the process, a printed spine fold provided with optically readable control markings is cut from its storage roll and transported to the fold bonding station. There, under electronic control and in a transverse position, the spine fold is combined with a gathered block of pages and front and back covers. The spine fold adhering to the covers is folded around and pressed onto the two adhesive coated folding edges of the covers and the back of the block. The uncut spine slip folds are supplied in the form of a continuous strip on a roll. They are stored parallel to each other and to the axle of the roll, and printed with text and control markings. This permits a number of spine slip folds to be simply printed in a continuous strip, wound on a roll and stored. The control code printed on every spine contains information on the width of the spine. The control code is scanned by a sensing device that is connected to the controlling means for a cutting device that then cuts the spine accordingly. The cutting table of the cutting device is located under the belt on which the adhesive coated spine is transported. As the spine fold is cut from the roll, it is blown against the back of the block that has been previously provided with a front and back cover.
