Features
The BQ-500 perfect binder is designed for increased book-of-one
productivity, increased automation, and increased quality control over a
wider range of substrates regardless of run length. The BQ-500 is the
first perfect binder to come equipped with iCE LINK, Horizon’s new
cloud-based JDF workflow and job-management tool. The system features an
improved and easy-to-use 12.1” touchscreen for quick setup, an
ergonomic design for efficient, operator-friendly operation, and an
enhanced delivery system for thin books.
- Advanced automation: The
BQ-500 features 21 automated sections in total, reducing setup and
changeover time even when making fine variable thickness adjustments –
all while ensuring higher quality books.
- Improved visual monitoring: A
new, larger production monitoring screen and new, customizable LED
lighting serve as a quick-look indicator of system readiness and status.
Indicator lights can even be seen from across the production floor with
the BQ-500’s light tower.
- Variable production: The
BQ-500 is the most productive binder for book-of-one production in its
class. In a variable range of +/-5mm, the BQ-500 can reach production
speeds of up to 800 books per hour, almost double the productivity of
other binders in this range.
- Expanded customization: The
BQ-500 is designed to support a wide range of connectivity and
enhancement options so that you can expand and tailor capabilities to
match your unique needs.
- Clean spine preparation:
Improved milling waste removal, a newly designed air flow, and an
improved glue application system help ensure high-quality production.
- EVA and PUR: The
BQ-500 features interchangeable EVA and PUR glue tanks with a new and
improved tank removal process for cleaner and easier tank changeover.
- Gentle delivery: To
prevent damage to more delicate books, the BQ-500 has reduced the book
drop from 150mm to only 5mm. Books are then gently lowered to the
delivery belt.
- iCE LINK: The
BQ-500 is the first perfect binder to come equipped with iCE LINK, a
cloud-based platform that can provide device monitoring, KPI analysis,
PM schedule/alerts, JDF/JMF Workflow, scheduling, job creation, editing
and more.
