<p>A binding plant (51) for hardcover books (27) comprising a binding equipment (54) and a false cover forming equipment (56). The false cover forming equipment carries out false covers (64), by positioning a pair of endpapers (33a, 33b) in correspondence of lateral binding flaps (46) of a respective backstrip (32), arranging folds (40) of the endpapers at a pre-assembling distance associated with the thickness of the text block (31) and gluing margins of past-down sheets (39) of the endpapers with binding edges 37 of the backstrip (32). The binding equipment (54) is feedable, at a cover input "IC", with the false covers (64) for carrying out book blocks (28) by gluing the backstrips (32) of the false covers with the binding edges of corresponding text blocks (31) and refolding the pairs of endpapers (33a, 33b) on the respective text blocks. An electronic processing unit (53) is settable for the control of the false cover forming equipment (56) and the binding equipment (54) as a function of the dimensions of the hardcover book (27) to be bound.</p> |
