Request a RecommendationBefore you enquire
What sizes of booklet can it make?
It takes flat sheets from 320 × 200 mm to 650 × 595 mm and delivers finished, folded booklets from 320 × 100 mm to 650 × 297 mm.
What stitching thickness can it handle?
It can handle a stitching thickness of 0.2 – 3 mm measured at the spine. The actual page count depends on the paper type and weight.
What paper can it run?
Sheet and cover from 55 – 250 g/m², so light text paper through to a heavy cover.
How fast is it?
Up to 3,000 books/hour, with 6 stitching heads working across the spine.
How many stitching heads?
It stitches with 6 heads. That is the clearest difference from the two-head 480 / 490 / 530 platforms, and it is what lets a wider sheet be stitched across its full width.
What does the suffix — T — actually mean?
The “T” configuration adds triple output, allowing three booklets to be produced from one sheet.
Which configurations does this model come in?
The MW-650 does stitching and folding only.
Is this a single-output machine?
Yes — in its standard form it is single output: one booklet per pass. The “T” configuration adds triple output, allowing three booklets to be produced from one sheet.
Which model should I choose?
Choose according to your sheet size, finished booklet size, paper weight, production volume and required finishing functions. If you are unsure, send us your specifications and we'll recommend a suitable model.
Can a base model be upgraded later?
Configuration options are available on the same platform. Please contact us to confirm the suitable setup for your production requirements.
What happens after I order?
Quoted lead time is typically 25–35 days. Every machine is tested before it leaves and packed for sea freight. Installation and operator training can be arranged — tell us what your team needs and we will include it in the quotation.
What warranty comes with it?
12 months on core components. Wear parts are consumables and are stocked as spares.
