Multiple types of binds
Fastbind Elite XT binding machine offers the largest flexibility. It quickly produces hard and soft cover books as well as Manager covers, tear-off pads, strip and lay-flat binding.

Fastbind Elite XT can bind books up to 17.9" X 12.6" for large format landscape books. This is ideal for print/copy shops, binderies, school yearbooks and photographers. The end result is a strong, square and affordable perfect bound book.

Roughener - PGO
FASTBIND Elite features the exclusive Paper Grain Opening (“PGO”) system. Unlike other spine rougheners that grind the spine creating lots of noise and dust, the PGO opens the paper grain with very little noise and there is no paper dust! The operator can control the number of PGO passes that need to be made to ensure a solid bind. The optional cover trimmer enables the bound book cover to be flush trimmed for the perfect finish, without the requirement for a guillotine.

Easy to use
It's easier to learn than an office copier! Anyone can be making professional quality books and reports in minutes. There are no set-up times or book format adjustments. It self adjusts for book thickness from 1 to 1000 pages. For the best quality, it is also possible to move the paper stopper to one of the three predefined fastening places for A3, A4 or A5 standard formats.
