The hot-melt binding machine is based on the principle of resin hot-melt adhesive to bind the text. There is no need to punch holes, and the binding effect is beautiful. The consumables used are hot-melt envelopes.

The iron ring punching and binding machine needs to punch holes first and then bind. The consumables used are iron rings, so the binding effect is strong and durable.

Electric punching and binding machine is a semi-automatic punching and binding machine which is different from manual operation and powered by electricity.

Generally, industrial book binding machines are mainly used in printing factories; daily office, school and other applications are not very different from our usual binding machines. As long as we can bind books, we can call them book binding machines, such as comb binding machines, hot-melt binding machines, riveting tube binding machines, etc., but pure punch card machines and staplers are not in this range.
