The Coverbind CPB1 perfect binding machine is the ideal system for anyone who needs to bind top-quality perfect bound books quickly and efficiently, in a tabletop solution.




This fully automated perfect binding system fits conveniently on a tabletop, offering automatic pneumatic clamping, nipping, and exacting glue coverage for a secure bind.




This CPB1 perfect binder system lets you bind softback books easily with a simple to use control panel that lets you customize the machine to your specific job quickly.




Start binding books on-demand, the pneumatic powered clamping mechanisms automatically adjust to your book block thickness from two sheets of paper up to 2-1/4” thick.



The CPB1 is a production powerhouse able to bind up to 360 books per hour, depending on the book specifications and operator capabilities.



In addition to doing the binding, the CPB1 can also be used to make pads. Change-over between each binding and padding is completed with just the push of a button, so there is no downtime when job requirements change.




The CPB1 has a unique roughing blade that includes a serrated edge and notching pins allowing for binding strength with maximum glue penetration.




The dual glue application rollers make sure the glue is applied to all surfaces of the spine and the metering roller smooths out the glue to the desired thickness. There is a side glue wire attached to the glue application rollers that applies a bead of adhesive on one side of the book block.




Additionally, the unique action of the nipping table pushes glue to the front side of the book block providing strong adhesion of the cover to the book block.




Both the clamp and nipping table are pneumatic and operate with the compressor that is included with the system. The nipping table has an adjustable height and dwell time of up to 3 seconds. The nipper adjustment knob allows the operator to increase or decrease the travel of the nipper to produce an exceptionally square-backed book.




There are 3 important sensors on the machine.
1. The book clamp sensor will prevent the book clamp from closing without a book block in the machine.



2. The cover sensor will prevent to book block from moving across the gluing section and into the nipping table unless a cover is in place



3. The safety touch sensor on the top of the clamp, will automatically open the clamp if a hand is on the book clamp.




The exit tray provides a staging area for cover stock and an area to stack books as they come out of the machine. An optional stand with castors is available, making it easy to move around the shop where needed or out of the way when not in use.




Accomplish swift, simple, and automated binding for your perfect bound books with the Coverbind CPB1. An ideal perfect binding solution for in-plant and on-demand print shops and binderies.

Coverbind CPB1 Staff Review

The Coverbind CPB1 Perfect Binding Machines is a sturdy, robust, perfect binding machine to add to your arsenal of tools. This perfect binder makes it easy to bind hundreds of paperback books an hour, with just the touch of a button. It’s never been faster or more efficient to create soft-cover books, novels, manuals, and more on-demand thanks to the powerful CPB1 perfect binder.

The Best Things About the Coverbind CPB1

The best things about the Coverbind CPB1 Perfect Binding Machine are its ability to produce 360 books every hour without needing a lot of space or training. The LCD panel is streamlined so you can quickly and simply adjust cover stocks, spin positions, book height, and more when you need to. It’s easy enough that anyone on your staff can bind books, without needing special training.

With the Coverbind CPB1, I get solid binding and finishing thanks to side gluing on the back of the spine. Perfect binding also produces a flat spine that may be printed on, which is another advantage. Being able to add details like the book's title and author to display on the spine, is something that adds a unique touch of personalization to the book.

The binding process has never been more customizable and you have complete control of the entire binding process. All the way down to the height of the book, cover stock, angled options, spin positions, and more. With the pneumatic/automatic clamping, specialized nipping, and finished off with essential glue coverage, you get a securely bound book.

The Things You Should Consider Before Buying the Coverbind CPB1 Table-Top Perfect Binding Machine

While the CPB1 is a swift and simple binding machine to produce perfectly bound books, you may not need it if you are a low-volume print shop. The CPB1 is quite large, so make sure you have a designated workspace for it to sit on. If you don't have a table or workspace designated for this table-top binder, grab the optional stand for it to sit on. This wouldn't fit comfortably in a small office or classroom.

If you have the dedicated workspace and would like to have a dedicated air compressor tank, side gluer tank, and dust collector bin, you check out the big brother machine, the CPB2SG. The CPB2SG comes on its own stand and uses a mill blade (instead of a roughing blade) which comes in handy if you want better glue application by leveling the paper across the bottom before the glue is applied.

The Bottom Line — Is the Coverbind CPB1 a Good Buy?

If you're an on-demand print shop or plant that needs to bind hundreds of books an hour, the Coverbind CPB1 Table-Top perfect binding Machine is a great fit. With efficient controls, saturated glue coverage, and automated clamping, your books will come out neat and quickly. Set up is simple, and you can get to binding straight away with easy controls on the LCD. Set up the machine according to your exact task requirements and begin instantly binding high-quality softcover books, novels, manuals, and more. Increase your bookbinding production output with the Coverbind CPB1 Perfect Binding today.

Roughing/Milling Blade Roughing Blade and 4 Notching Pins Milling and 2 Heavy Duty Notching Pins Roughing/Milling Blade gives the spine more surface area for the glue to adhere on. Model CPB2SG is equipped with Roughing/Milling Blade. This procedure makes it easier when working with coated paper and other types of paper stock that need more glue saturation.
Glue Rollers 2 Glue, 1 Metering 2 Glue, 1 Metering, Side Glue Tank Glue rollers provide a foolproof bond. The CPB1 and CPB2SG all have 2 Glue Rollers and 1 Metering. Model CPB2SG have the Side Glue Tank. A stonger bond is made with the side gle when the cover is nipped. This creates strong adhesion of the cover to the book block on both the spine and front/back. A built in heat control ensure that the temperature is always optimal.
Vacuum Waste Removal System No Yes Having a Vacuum Waste Removal System helps keep the machine in optimal operating performance. The system collects dust that would otherwise end up inside the machine and glue. Without the vacuum system, paper dust produced from the roughening and notching process will accumulate and will cause future issues and damaged.
Safety Hood No Yes Protecting operators from accidents is the Safety Hood. This feature prevents access to the glue pots. It is only bypassed when a security key is inserted. The function is convenient when the book block height exceeds the opening of the safety cover. It also provides access in troubleshooting the machine. To make sure that no accidents happen, a clamp safety sensor runs the entire length of the clamp.
Clamp Safety Sensor Yes Yes Clamp Safety Sensors run the entire length of the book clamp to restrict access during operation. This prevent accidents that happend from contact with the binding parts.
Book & Cover Sensors Yes Yes The Book and Cover Sensor makes sure that outputs are always complete. The sensor alerts the operator when a book or cover is missing. The binder will not operate when one of these components is missing.
Stand Optional Included A stand for the CPB1 will optimize its function and productivity as it provides the perfect working height, proper balance, and stability. The stand will create a cohesive workstation as it provides space for the compressor and glue storage.
Air Compressor Yes Yes The binder takes advantage of Pneumatic control. It offers convenience and speed with its auto adjust functions for book block size.
Fume Extractor Yes Yes Create a smell and odor-free work place with the Fume Extractor. The extractor traps fumes from the glue pot and directs away from the operator. Hooking the extractor to an external vent keeps the fume out of the workplace for operator safety.
Automatic Cover Creaser No No The Automatic Cover Creaser eliminates the possibility of cracking in the folded site especially when workinth digitally printed media. This feature maintains the aesthetic of the print and elevates the quality of the final product. Having this built in feature eliminates the need for an additional process on a separate machine, saving you time and money.
Creasing Bar No No The Creasing Bar gives operators sevaral creasing depth options. It can be rotated in four directions to select the perfect crease depth for every unique project.
Automatic Cover Feeder No No Improving the workflow and operator convenience is the Automatic Cover Feeder.
