Reviewing The Gbc Proclick P210e Binding Machine
GBC ProClick spines are a great way to give your documents the professional look you need while offering you the convenience you deserve
. These supplies allow you to edit your booklet even after the binding process is over and they ensure your documents will lay flat for easy reading. One machine that is compatible with these spines is the GBC ProClick P210E. Here are the product's strengths and weaknesses so you can decide if this is the right method for you.
Strengths:
* The P210E is equipped with a patented Guide Right system that will help you accurately punch your paper every time you use it. You just pop your paper in the punching tray and the machine will perfectly punch your pages with the touch of a button. It can punch up to 15 sheets at once.
* This device has a 3:1 punching pattern. That means it will punch 3 holes per inch. This is the pattern that you need to use if you want to bind with color coil spines, so you'll have two binding options when you use the P210E. Color coils are great because they're available in many different colors (hence the name) and a lot of different sizes. You could even use this machine with twin loop wire if you have a wire closer available to you.
* This machine has a binding capacity of 110 sheets for booklets that are 5/8" thick. This length is more than adequate for a lot of professional documents.
* There is an integrated spine guide that allows you to measure the thickness of your booklet so you can choose the appropriate spine. Plus, you can store your supplies in the machine's built-in storage tray.
* This is an electric machine so you'll be able to bind your documents much more quickly that you would be able to with a manual device.
Weaknesses:
* This device comes with a limited one-year warranty. During the warranty, GBC will most likely just replace the machine if there is a problem. However, after the warranty, you might have difficulty finding parts for the machine since GBC replaces rather than repairs this model.
* Fifteen sheets will be a good punching capacity for most users. However, this capacity could prove to be tedious if you need to create a lot of booklets, so it's not recommended for high-volume operations.
* While the punching pattern the P210E produces is compatible with color coil spines, this machine does not include a set of coil crimpers. However, you can manually bind your documents with these supplies, if you want. (Just be sure to have coil crimpers handy. Otherwise your booklet will fall apart.)
* Finally, the P210E is really only good for binding documents that are letter-sized (8.5" x 11"), as well as punching slightly oversized covers. This is due to the both the machine's design (i.e. no disengageable pins) and the fact that ProClick spines are really best for binding letter-sized booklets. Users that need to bind documents of different sizes should choose a different method all together.
Overall, the GBC ProClick P210E does what it's mean to do and it does it well. This is a great device if you love the look and convenience of ProClick spines and also want the option of binding your documents with color coil materials. If that sounds like you, this machine is the perfect choice. If not, there are lot of other machines and binding systems you can consider.
