Star product: Renz DTP 340 A

The Renz DTP 340 A semi-automatic punching machine targets digital printers and small finishers with small to medium run lengths.

In semi-automatic mode, it handles 750 cycles per hour and widths up to 43cm. The firm claims it is the fastest punch system in its class as punching dies can be exchanged in less than two minutes.

It features manual feeding and a simple control panel for format adjustments as well as a sensor activated paper stop. The machine can be used for wire, plastic comb, coil and calendar binding and has a 3.5mm punching throat.

It will help small finishers save time and money, said Renz UK sales and marketing manager Daniel Pooley. For example, when punching A4 books, of approximately 60 sheets, using 80gsm paper you could produce around 100 books an hour using traditional punching methods, or 350 books per hour using the DTP 340 A in semi-automatic mode.
