Albelli, one of the major photo book manufacturers in the Netherlands, will soon be producing photo books on an Antaro Digital and an InfiniTrim.
The company signed the contract for an InfiniTrim trimming robot, which will be complemented by an Antaro Digital perfect binder next year.
The company is part of Storio Group with production facilities in France, UK, Spain and Netherlands. It offers a wide range of photo products and supplies customers in many European countries. In order to technically upgrade the photo book production, the older systems, which are working less and less efficiently, will be replaced in two stages.
In September, the existing HD 143 three-knife trimmer will be replaced by an InfiniTrim cutting robot. Next year, the Antaro Digital perfect binder will replace the ageing KM 200 perfect binders.
The Antaro Digital is the ideal perfect binder for Albelli to produce the book blocks for the popular photo books in print run 1. In the on-demand sector, it produces products in runs of 1 at 2000 cycles/h. It has an extremely compact design and achieves the same output with less than half the number of operators. With the InfiniTrim, it has the ideal partner, as the trimming robot offers fully variable three-side-trimming.
