The CoilMac-EPI Electric Punch and Electric Bind (4:1) is the first all-in-one unit that offers both electric punching and electric coil inserting in one compact unit, making Spiral Binding fast, easy and convenient. The CoilMac-EPI offers a heavy duty motor and state of the art punching mechanisms. The heavy-duty motor will punch through up to 20 sheets of 20# paper with ease. The EPI features an Electro-Magnetic Brake, giving it the capability to handle heavier loads, provide a longer life, & always offer trouble free punching. The Reverse (Anti-jam) Function easily removed paper jams due to overfilled waste drawers or overloading the machine with too much paper. The foot pedal operated built-in electric coil inserter allows the operator the free working of both hands and complete control of the roller. This drastically reduces time and costs by making the inserting surprisingly fast and easy. The depth margin control allows you to determine how deep set you want your punched holes on the binding edge. This allows for better tear resistance. The U-shaped alignment channel aides in conforming the spine of larger documents to the coil's shape, for faster and easier insertion. This tool is especially helpful with large books. The all metal construction is heavy duty and built to last. The Akiles CoilMac EPI includes Hand Cutter Crimper Pliers for a complete finishing solution.
The Coilmac EPI Plus features all of the above specifications; however, its slight punching difference makes Spiral Binding 50% faster & much easier to complete-eliminating the stress of coil inserting! The EPI+ features 4mm x 5mm oval holes that make the coil insertion process easier & faster than ever before. Because a Spiral Binding is a continuous spiral, the oval holes provide a clear path for the coil as it is inserted into the book. No more struggling over Spiral Binding coil that is caught on a sheet in your book! The Akiles "Plus" machines are the first & only pieces of equipment in their class to offer this advanced feature. Scroll down below the specifications for a real-life diagram of the hole patterns. Another difference between the CoilMac EPI and the CoilMac EPI+ is the disengageable pins. While the EPI features 5 removable pins, the EPI+ has 54 fully disengageable pins, for a completely clean & professional punching of any paper size. The revolutionary 4:1 pitch with .248" hole spacing is specifically designed to give you 44 evenly-centered holes in an 11" sheet, which provides the most ideal hole to edge-of-sheet margins and easier Spiral Binding coil insertion. This hole pattern is 100% compatible with the standard 4:1 pitch coils. The CoilMac EPI Electric Spiral Binding Machine is perfect for office & professional use. Some project ideas include reports, presentation materials, marketing materials, & calendars.
