Print finishing tools
Match common print jobs to listed catalogue options and estimate a binding element size. Use the results for planning, then confirm production suitability with your machine specifications, measured materials and a sample.
Material selector
Choose a job, size, finish and handling level. The selector checks those choices against listed catalogue options.
This is a catalogue match, not an application performance approval. Suitability depends on the substrate, exposure, print, equipment and required service life; the catalogue does not provide qualification data for these conditions.
Binding capacity calculator
Estimate a candidate spine diameter from measured paper inputs, then match it to a size in the selected binding range.
This planning heuristic adds both covers and a 3 mm allowance, then rounds up to a catalogue size. The 3 mm allowance and quantity-based waste tiers are assumptions from the supplied brief, not universal industry standards. Confirm the machine maker’s capacity chart for this exact pitch and stock, use measured caliper, and bind a sample before production.
