DS15 ThreeKnife TrimMaster
TriBlade Precision. Intelligent Automation. SpaceEfficient Design.
The DS15 TrimMaster redefines threeknife trimming for today's digital print, ondemand publishing, and shortrun production markets. Engineered around a triblade cutting system, it delivers flawless threesided trims-front, side, and face edges-in one fully automated pass. Deploy it inline with perfect binders or use it standalone for maximum workflow flexibility.
At the core of the DS15 is its tripleknife alignment: three synchronized, servodriven blades that guarantee micronlevel accuracy and uniform tripleedge finishes on every job.
