Description of the Akiles OffiWire
Sizing, punching, threading,and crimping can all be done in-house with the OffiWire, a great starter machine for companies looking for an affordable way to do their own punching and binding. This low volume punch and wire binding system features a high quality metal chassis that ensures durability, capable of punching up to 10 sheets of 20 pound paper, while the Hardened Steel Dies provide the cleanest cut for the most difficult to punch material, such as PVC, Polypropylene, polyester, etc. Wire closure is made easy in the vertical closing system with the bilateral closer, which adjusts the wire independently at each end so you don't have to. Guides provided on the machine make precision easy: an added wire selector helps you determine the precise wire dimension to use for your binding project, while the side margin guide helps to evenly center the document once its in place.
The ergonomic U-shaped handle fits perfectly into your hand and makes the entire operation easy for anyone to use, while maximizing punching strength. The OffiWire is available in two versions: the OffiWire-31 is made for tougher jobs, with the ability to punch and bind a pitch up to 3:1, whereas the OffiWire-21 is standard, made for jobs with pitches up to 2:1. The OffiWire-31 has a square (4x4 mm) hole punch and the OffiWire-21 has a rectangular (4x5.5 mm) punch.
