If you’re looking for a tabletop binder capable of handling legal-sized documents, this is it. The Tamerica 240HB Manual Comb Opener Binding Machine weighs in at a portable, yet durable 16.5 pounds. Despite its small size, it still has the capacity to handle up to 2” of legal-sized paper at a time.
How is it Used?
The Tamerica 240HB does not include a punch, so it needs to be used in conjunction with a puncher like the Tamerica 240 HP Manual Puncher, 240 EP Electric Puncher or the HEP 280 Power Puncher. The advantage to separating your punching and binding between two machines is that you can have two operators. Instead of monopolizing one machine with all your punching and binding, you can double or even triple your output by spreading it across two machines and setting up an assembly line for production.
Once your document is punched simply place the coil in the machine, open it and thread the document on to your comb, release and you’re done.
And How Much Does it Cost?
The Tamerica 240HB Manual Comb Opener Binding Machine costs $215 at Lloyd’s and comes with a 1-year warranty from the manufacturer. You can opt to purchase an extended warranty from Lloyd’s of Indiana for 15% of the purchase price for a 2-year warranty or 20% of the purchase price for 3 years.
