Plockmatic PBM500

Pre-'e' generation inline/offline bookletmakerLegacy model, fully supported

The Plockmatic PBM500 is a pre-'e' generation inline/offline bookletmaker. It runs sheets from 206 × 275 mm up to 320 × 457 mm. It handles stock from 64 to 300 gsm. No longer in production — we still supply tooling for machines in service.

Each job you run comes with its own specific problems, and more often than not the culprit is found on the tooling shafts. The standard finishing tools supplied with your machine aren’t accurate, versatile or delicate enough for the results you and your customers expect. At Technifold we design and build bespoke, retro-fit premium finishing tools to solve both common and complex finishing problems.

Your PBM500, finished properly.

Custom & OEM toolingA part that is obsolete, impossible to source, or never existed. If it is a wheel, a blade, a rib or a holder that touches paper or board, we can probably make it.See how we eliminate it →
