Though it may be the smallest of Rhino s electric interchangeable punches, the OD4000 offers you about as much as a binding punch can offer. Presented to the market as a solution for small to medium businesses and other organizations who want a lot of flexibility in their binding styles, the OD4000 represents a huge step up to those folks who have outgrown their tedious old manual punches. Here are five great things about the Rhino OD4000.
1. Versatility. The vast majority of punching and binding jobs are letter sized, and that is what the OD4000 is designed for. However, if you find that you need to work with some documents that are larger, such as legal size, A4 or A5, this machine has an open throat design that will allow you to punch those documents too, by using a simple two punch process. Using the special guide markers, all you will need to do is to punch one side, then flip the stack over and punch the other side. Along with the fully disengageable dies, you will find that the OD4000 is up to just about any task.
2. More Versatility. As in a dozen different punching and binding styles. The machine comes with the die of your choice, and after that, the sky is the limit. Some of the styles that are available include twin loop wire, Velobind, basic three hole, comb binding, and spiral coil. It s hard to imagine more flexibility in your punching options than that. Even better, when you decide to change dies, the process could not be easier. There are no special tools required and the whole process takes a matter of minutes.
3. Price. The OD4000 is not an inexpensive machine, but its pricing is extremely competitive when compared with similar models from GBC or Renz. In fact, this is one of the least expensive modular interchangeable die punches available on the market. This kind of versatility for the price is fairly unheard of.
4. Design and Innovation. Rhino has patented a die pin retainer system that can only be called ingenious. Called the swing away system, it gives the user quick and easy access to all of the machine s punching pins while keeping them firmly in place. This is one of the easiest methods we have seen on the market for disengaging punch pins. You can even attach your finishing equipment to the top or side of this machine to save counter space and to build your own combination binding solution. You can t beat that. Plus, the OD4000 is built like the proverbial tank. It features all metal construction, and has truly earned the name and reputation of the whole Rhino Tuff line. By all appearances, this is a machine that should give you years of faithful service.
5. Easy Operation. The OD4000 runs smoothly, quietly, and powerfully. You can use either the handy foot pedal (making it possible to hold onto your stack with both hands), the versa switch, or the palm switch.
