Horauf BDM 60 Automatic Casemaker (1998)

The Horauf BDM 60 is one of the industry’s most respected automatic case making machines for hardcover book production. Designed for medium and high-volume manufacturing, it automates every major stage of case production including board feeding, spine feeding, glue application, cover positioning, folding, pressing, and finished case delivery.

The machine includes an inline board cutting device, allowing continuous production without separate board preparation. Flexible spine material is automatically fed from roll stock, while the computer-controlled glue viscosity system maintains consistent adhesive quality throughout production.

Its heavy-duty German construction and reliable automation make it suitable for book manufacturers, diary producers, luxury packaging companies, photo album manufacturers, and premium stationery producers.
