Commercial-Grade 21-Hole Punch and Built-In Comb Opener

Description: Take total control over your plastic comb binding workflow. The Akiles AlphaBind-CM is a professional-grade manual punch and closer engineered for users who demand precision, durability, and high-volume output. Built with a rugged, all-metal chassis, this machine handles up to 25 sheets of 20lb paper per lift with an ergonomic, weighted handle that maximizes leverage and minimizes physical effort.

What sets the AlphaBind-CM apart is its layout flexibility. Featuring 21 fully disengageable die pins, you can instantly customize the punch pattern for any document size up to 12" wide, including standard Letter, A4, and custom notebooks. This ensures zero "half-holes" on the edges of your pages, guaranteeing a flawless, retail-quality presentation every single time.

Why the AlphaBind-CM Outperforms Standard Office Binders:

• 21 Independent Disengageable Pins: Pull any individual pin to eliminate unwanted partial holes on the edges of your document. Essential for custom or non-standard paper sizes.

• All-Metal "Tank" Construction: No plastic gears or flimsy housings. The AlphaBind-CM stays perfectly stable on your counter and is built to survive years of constant daily use.

• Integrated Comb Opener: Features a heavy-duty comb mechanism on top that allows you to open plastic binding combs from 3/16" all the way up to 2" thick for massive manuals.

• Adjustable Side Margin & Depth Control: Fine-tune the distance of the holes from the edge of the sheet. Use a deeper margin for 2-inch books to prevent pages tearing out, or a shallow margin for thin reports to allow for easy page turning.

• High-Capacity Waste Drawer: Extra-large chip tray catches punch debris, reducing cleanup frequency during large-scale binding runs.
