FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What specific advantages does the side glue application provide over standard perfect binding?
The Okoboji side glue system creates additional adhesive bonds along document edges, reducing page separation by up to 70% and significantly extending publication lifespan, particularly beneficial for frequently handled educational and reference materials.
How does the three-roller system differ from single-roller configurations in terms of quality?
The advanced three-roller configuration provides superior glue distribution control, ensuring consistent adhesive thickness across both spine and side applications, resulting in stronger bonds and more professional finishing compared to single-roller systems.
What types of publications benefit most from the side glue binding technology?
Educational textbooks, technical manuals, catalogues, directories, cookbooks, and any high-use publications requiring exceptional durability benefit significantly from Okoboji's side glue technology, particularly in institutional and commercial environments.
Is additional training required for operators to manage the side glue functionality?
Okoboji provides comprehensive training covering both standard and side glue operations, typically requiring 2-3 additional hours of instruction to master the enhanced controls and quality assessment procedures for optimal results.
What is the cost difference in consumables between standard and side glue binding?
Side glue binding typically increases adhesive consumption by 15-20% due to additional application points, but the enhanced durability and reduced reprinting needs often result in overall cost savings for quality-focused operations.
Can the side glue feature be disabled for standard perfect binding when not required?
Yes, the Okoboji machine allows operators to easily disable side glue application through the LCD control panel, enabling standard perfect binding operation when enhanced durability is not required for specific projects.
How does the extended heating time of 35 minutes affect daily production schedules?
The additional 10 minutes of heating time is typically offset by reduced setup time between jobs and fewer quality issues, with most operators reporting minimal impact on overall daily production efficiency.
What maintenance procedures are specific to the side glue application system?
Regular cleaning of side glue applicators, daily inspection of roller alignment, and weekly lubrication of additional mechanical components are required, adding approximately 15 minutes to standard maintenance routines.
Is the investment in side glue technology justified for medium-volume operations?
For operations binding 100+ books daily with quality requirements, the Okoboji side glue technology typically pays for itself within 6-8 months through reduced reprints, enhanced customer satisfaction, and premium pricing opportunities.
How does Okoboji's side glue implementation compare to competitive alternatives in the Indian market?
Okoboji's integrated side glue system offers superior reliability and easier operation compared to add-on solutions, with local service support and competitive pricing making it the preferred choice for Indian commercial printing operations.
