The Layflat 3000 Suite is a Pressnet-curated workflow for premium layflat and hardcover books. It links three proven stations: a case maker for accurate covers, a layflat book-block machine for board-to-board mounting with cold glue, and a multi-function casing-in unit for fast, bladeless case-on. Together they deliver short-run friendly changeovers, compact footprint, and consistent, square books from cover to finished casebound.
Automatic case maker that completes paper gluing → cardboard positioning → four-side fold-in in one pass for book covers, binders, calendars and packaging lids.
