The GBC CombBind C450E is
a new electric plastic comb binding machine has a number of new
features not included on other similar types binding equipment.This machine includes GBC’s new patented document
separator and auto centering features to help make plastic comb binding
easier than ever.

Overview:

• The GBC CombBind C450E is
  a new electric plastic comb binding machine has a number of new
  features not included on other similar types binding equipment.
• The
  C450e is designed specifically for small and medium sized offices that
  need to bind documents quickly and easily with plastic combs or GBC
  Zipbind.
• This machine includes GBC’s new patented document
  separator and auto centering features to help make plastic comb binding
  easier than ever.

Strengths / Features:

• The
  GBC C450e includes an electric binding punch that is capable of
  punching up to 25 sheets of 20lb bond paper at a time. This is more
  sheets than most of the other electric plastic comb binding machines on
  the market. This helps to increase the productivity offered by the
  C450e allowing you to bind your documents faster so that you can spend
  your time worrying about other things. All you need to do in order to
  punch documents with the machine is to insert the pages, make sure they
  are centered and press the punching button.
• The new auto
  centering technology on this machine helps to save on setup time by
  eliminating the need to set the paper edge guide for punching. This is
  great for users who need to punch a few documents and don’t want to
  spend 3-5 minutes setting up their machine.
• The document
  separator technology on the C450e is designed to help you quickly and
  easily pick up the right number of sheets for the punch. This helps
  users to punch the optimal number of sheets with every lift and
  eliminates costly and time consuming paper jams.

Weaknesses / Limitations:

• The
  C450e does not include a depth of punch guide for choosing the distance
  of the holes from the binding edge of your documents. Since it doesn’t
  have this feature, the C450e should not be used with 3/16″ combs.
• This
  machine does not have disengageable dies for punching custom sized
  sheets. It also does not have an open throat so it can’t be used for
  legal sized punching or for punching A4 sized paper.
• The
  C450e uses a unique rotary comb opener. This requires you to turn a
  knob on the side of the machine in order to open the plastic combs when
  you are inserting your documents onto them. This mechanism is easy to
  use but takes more time than a standard comb opener that is operated
  using a handle.
• The features such as the auto centering
  technology, the document separator and the rotary comb opener are
  designed to save inexperienced users time when binding documents.
  However, experienced users will more than likely find that these
  features will slow down both the punching and binding process.

Recommendation:

• The
  GBC C450e electric plastic comb binding machine is an excellent choice
  for small and medium sized offices that are looking for a machine to
  help them quickly and easily bind up to one hundred documents per week.
• It includes a number of great new features to help inexperienced users bind their documents quickly without issues.
• However,
  larger organizations and experienced users will more than likely find
  that the features on this machine will slow down the binding process
  instead of speeding it up. Thus , this machine is best suited for users
  who need to bind a few documents at a time and aren’t experts in
  handling binding machines.
