摘要

A book binding system for small quantities has the book blocks taken from a cutting station (S) and held by clamping grips for trimming and alignment. The blocks are moved through process stations in which the spine is shaped and applied with adhesive before being inserted into the prepared covers. The completed books are moved into a magazine for drying.
