Precision Paper Cutting and Drilling

Precision paper cutting can be a major bottleneck in any post press operation, however with the additional modular units that PBS has installed, such as conveyor tables, automatic waste removal, stackers, joggers, and pile turners, there is an efficient flow of paper on our plant floor to, and from, the cutter.

We can precision-cut paper with excellent efficiency, accuracy and productivity.

We also have two drill units with multi-head capability, precision output, high speed and quick turn-arounds.

Service Description

We have two paper cutters with features that include stack lift, automated jogger with counting scale, an air table (which makes moving the paper stack across the work surface nearly effortless), automated stacker, quick knife change capability, auto cutting line with computer program control and centralized operator panel and monitor.

We have two drills: one has 5 drill heads with indexing gauge, allowing precision drilling of loose leaf sets or books; the other is a multi-head drill (5 heads) that provides high speed and quick turn-around – with a capability of 900 strokes per hour through loose leaf sets or books.
