Abstract: It is an object to provide a trimmer that can trim a fore-edge portion of a bound material except a cover and that can be excellent in productivity and cost. A cover has flap portions adjacent to the fore-edge portion of the bound material, a trimmer includes: a trim cutter that trims the bound material; a blade receiving portion that receives an edge of the trim cutter; a base portion and a pressure portion that nip and position the bound material; and a pair of guide portions arranged for movement in a direction close to or away from the bound material, wherein the guide portions are inserted between the book block and the cover so as to peel the cover together with the flap portions up when the fore-edge portion of the bound material is trimmed by the trim cutter.

Abstract: Provided is a cutting apparatus including: a rotary table; a pressing unit; a cutting unit; a drive unit that rotates and moves the rotary table; a transport unit that transports a cut book in a transport direction to a stacking position; and a control unit that controls the drive unit and the transport unit, and the control unit performs, in a switchable manner, a first transport mode to transport a book having edges cut by the cutting unit in the transport direction in a state where the spine was rotated to be arranged in a predetermined direction about a rotation center of the rotary table and a second transport mode to transport a book having edges cut by the cutting unit in the transport direction in a state where the spine was rotated to be arranged in a direction different from the predetermined direction about the rotation center.

Abstract: A trimmer comprises a trim knife for trimming the bound material, a blade receiving portion 19 for receiving a blade edge of the trim knife, and an adjustment mechanism 60 configured to adjust a position of the blade receiving portion 19 in such a manner that each of one side 191 and other side 192 of the blade receiving portion 19 moves by not only a same amount but also a different amount and in directions toward and away from the blade edge of the trim knife. Each of positions of the one side 191 and the other side 192 of the blade receiving portion 19 can be adjusted.

Abstract: A trimmer trims a bound material at end portions and/or corner portions of the bound material. The trimmer has a table (2), a pressing unit (4), a trimming mechanism (5) that has a trimming blade (52) and moves the trimming blade (52) to the trimming position, a rotation mechanism (3) that rotates the table (2), a rotation control unit that is operatively connected to the rotation mechanism (3) in such a way that a predetermined trimming line of the bound material positioned parallel to a longitudinal direction of the trimming blade (52), a moving mechanism (6) that moves the trimming mechanism (5) in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the trimming blade (52), and a movement control unit that is operatively connected to the moving mechanism (6) so as to move the trimming mechanism and align the trimming line and the trimming position with each other.
