About Watkiss DigiVac+ Booklet System (Full Refurbishment Completed)

2nd User Watkiss DigiVac+ 12 Station vacuum Collator coupled with Watkiss Automatic Booklet Maker (Top Line Model with Stitch Heads) and Front Edge Trimmer. A Watkiss ASM350 Squareback can also be added although we don't have this section with the machine.
Full strip down & rebuild refurbishment by TFP with final inspection completed by Watkiss Own Engineers to give it a clean bill of health and run final check. Any Inspection welcome, this is one of the best 2nd User Watkiss Machines on the market, it is very clean and tidy and great in operation. Comes with Jogger Unit for High Speed Collation.
The Watkiss Digivac combines reliable sheet feeding with a constant work flow to make it the most productive and easy to use collator ever.
The revolutionary patented suction feed system feeds sheets from the bottom of the stack. You reload the bins while the machine is still running, before the bin actually runs out. The result is none stop productivity. Conventional collators stand idle for 50% of the time while the operator reloads the bins; so the productivity gains of the DigiVac are easy to see.
The Automatic Stitch, Fold & Trim units are the professional choice for high production stitching, folding and trimming. They provide high volume users with consistent accuracy and reliability. The Auto system is the flagship high volume solution and is capable of Folding, Stitch & Fold, Edge Stitch, Edge Stitch & Fold, and Corner Stitch making it extremely versatile.
The full system is controlled from the Colour Touch screen on the DigiVac tower, everything from bins in use, sheet sizes, stitch and fold position and trimming are easily adjusted from this one screen.
Why buy? For business owners
Continuous operation produces more reliable feeds since the paper stack is constantly aerated – All collators run better when they are not stop starting.
The DigiVac also incorporates the unique Watkiss Smart detection system in every bin, continually averaging and fully compensating for ambient light conditions. Truly reliable feed, continuous production with secure feeding make the DigiVac the ideal choice for digital and lithographic printers.
The Automatic Stitch-Fold and Trim offers fully automated setup via the central touch screen. All the settings for sheet size, fold and stitch position, book thickness and trim margin are set to within 0.1 mm from the DigiVac + Colour Screen. Pre-defined settings for standard sheet sizes makes setup fast, precise & easy. Additional memories store custom jobs settings for future use.
The patented clam-shell design makes the Automatic Stitch-Fold remarkably compact. It provides the collated set with a near vertical infeed path, resulting in well-aligned sheets and accurate books every time. It also makes it suitable for books that have mixed sheets – an A4 booklet, with a loosely bound flat A4 sheet inside, is an example.
For a perfect finish, especially on thicker books, the optional online trimmer clamps the spine and trims the fore-edge with a high speed steel blade which has a self-sharpening scissor action.
Why buy? For operators
The constant feed and production workflow has another benefit – bin loading is less strenuous for the operator, who can load a comfortable handful of stock at a time without losing productivity. The DigiVac’s unique suction feeder design dramatically reduces the need for adjustment.
The intelligent control system removes all the guesswork for the operator. Bins automatically switch on when they are loaded and once the job is started, the bins are security locked to prevent operator errors. The detection system is self-calibrating and automatically compensates for minor stock variations. Various operating modes for collating preset quantities, feeding covers or for running batches are easily programmed.
The DigiVac also has an integral dynamic hand merge station which means booklets comprising more than 8 or 12 sheets can be produced in two stages by hand merging partial sets.
The DigiVac+ which is part of this system incorporates the colour touch screen display which controls all aspects of the entire machine allowing the operator to stay in one place to power everything.
