Formax Punch100 Modular Electric Punching System
The Formax Punch100 is a foot-pedal-activated electric punch that swaps between tool-free interchangeable dies for double-loop wire, plastic comb, and spiral coil, so one machine covers every binding style. Its precision vertical punching system uses gravity for consistent hole placement on stacks up to 3.5 mm thick and sheets up to 13.4 inches wide, and the modular design accepts the Wire100, Comb100, or Coil100 binding modules to build a complete punch-and-bind station.
