Print manufacturing is often a harsh production environment. 24-hour production cycles, sparse preventive maintenance schedules, paper dust and ink everywhere, and immovable deadlines. To stay on schedule and produce a high-quality product, equipment needs to run easily and reliably. Commercial printing companies rely on our MPT Series and APT Series banders in every area of their manufacturing process. From the pressroom to the bindery to samples to kitting, our banders provide the versatility they need, and the reliability they demand.
We provide both manually-operated systems can run up to 25-30 bundles per minute as well as fully automated, stacker-integrated systems. Whether you're running a single shift five days a week or 24 hours per day, 7 days per week, our banding system conforms to any printing workflow.
Our clients range from the largest in the industry to your local print and copy shop. While their workloads may vary, their needs are the same:
Cost Savings
Our banders use a banding material that is a fraction of the cost of other banding consumables; often providing an ROI solely on consumable savings in less than six months. All of our banders are designed and manufactured to require no preventive maintenance. By using the highest quality, precision machined components, each Madison Bander can perform even under the most demanding production environments.
Ultimate reliability
Our banders are designed, manufactured and assembled here in the United States of America. Industrial-grade components and exacting design and manufacturing standards combine to give you trouble-free operation and performance.
Simplicity
Our banders are designed for entry-level employees to operate with only minutes of training via step-by-step instructions and an easy-to-read touchscreen display.
Speed
At 25-30 bundles per minute, our MPT Series banders will outpace most banders available today. Ten-second roll changes help keep our banders doing what they does best: keeping your line running.
Versatility
Our Reactive Tension Control System enables you to to band a single brochure and still provide the strength to securely hold a 20-pound mail bundle.
Minimal footprint
110-volt power and standard house air allow this bander to move easily from workstation to workstation, leaving the smallest possible footprint in your facility.
Sustainability
CE banders use 100% recyclable LLDPE banding material that can be co-mingled with existing stretch film recycling programs.
Our SB-25 uses a multi-stage stacker to collect from an up-stream operation such as a card affixing table or binding machine until either a predetermined count is reached or a sort signal is received from the up-stream equipment. From there, products are dropped in the push position and indexed into the banding position. The pusher is driven by a high speed stepper motor.
This system was engineered to count, stack, and auto-band cards as small as 3" x 3" and up to 8.5" x 11" in 4" bundles at rates up to 25 bundles per minute. By accepting a single product stream or shingled product stream, our stacker can seamlessly integrate with most card lines. This system also has an automatic roll changer, providing maximum uptime.
