Production of variable signatures from a roll for book production, catalogs, and magazines. Signatures can then be fed to a gathering machine, a saddle stitcher or a thread sewing machine. System is also suitable for direct mail, letter-folding or other folding applications. The dynamic and variable cross cutting unit in the Length- and Cross Cutter CS8 can be equipped either with two knives for chip out or with one cutting knife and one perforating blade for dynamic fold perforations. This allows the production of high-quality variable and flat signatures.
