What are the different types of binding?
• Plastic Comb • Double Loop Wire • Coil • Velobind • Thermal Binding Plastic Comb Binding Plastic comb binding is one of the most popular forms of binding. Plastic combs are not only durable, but they can be re-used. Plastic combs are widely used by schools, businesses and are easy for home use. You have the option to purchase a machine with an electric or manual punch. Manual punches are usually used for small to medium volume jobs and the electric punches are usually used for medium to high volume jobs. It all depends on how much work you want to do. Plastic comb binders first punch the holes for the paper. After punching the holes, you place a binding comb on the machine. You then pull a handle which opens the combs up for you. While the comb is open, you place the comb through the holes and close the plastic comb. Plastic comb binding machines punch 19 holes along the 11 inch side of a paper. Plastic combs can bind anything from 3/16 inches (12 sheets of standard 20 pound paper) t
