Between them, the German companies will show three pile turners, five high-speed guillotines and three systems with a BASA jogger, as well as a range of perfect-binding lines.

Baumann said it believes the main talking point will be the BASA, its fully automatic jogging machine.

Also on show will be the next generation of Wohlenberg guillotines, including a world premiere of the Wohlenberg High-Speed guillotine.

The new machine has a closed machine table without slot and closing tape, which Wohlenberg said creates a superior air cushion for extremely easy handling and turning of the cutting stack.

The hydraulic unit has been moved to the centre of the machine, underneath the clamp, to make sure that the pressure is even on both sides, which is meant to ensure a precise cut.

Other products on display will include a typical all-round cutting system incorporating the new Wohlenberg 115 and highly automated cutting lines, one with the new Wohlenberg 132 one with the new Wohlenberg 225.

On the perfect-binding side, the focus will be on important innovations as well as essential trends.

On show will be the latest Master E 8000. The machine will be displayed with ConditionPro – a new system for real-time monitoring of machine conditions – a CFF cover folder feeder and a VSS-foredge trimming device.

Also present will be the Trim-tec 90e, a fully automatic 90-cycle three-knife trimmer, and two further perfect-binding systems.
