Overview:

The Akiles Megabind 1E is an all metal heavy duty electric plastic comb binding machine that includes many features that other smaller comb binding machines do not include.
It is designed for medium sized organizations that are looking for a high quality durable electric comb binding machine that offers flexibility for binding multiple sizes, lengths and thicknesses.
The heavy duty construction and features of the Megabind 1E make it a great choice for medium sized businesses that need a machine that they can count on.

Features/ Strengths:

The Akiles Megabind 1E is made almost entirely of metal. The body of the machine, the handle, the comb opener and all of the internal components are made of high quality steel. The metal construction of this machine is designed to ensure that it will last for years in organizations that bind documents on a daily basis.
The Megabind-1E is a legal sized plastic comb binding machine with 24 fully disengageable dies. This means that it can be used to punch almost any size of paper imaginable. In fact, it can be used for binding: letter size, legal size, A4, half letter and for punching oversized covers. It even includes a continuous punching control that allows for punching documents that are longer than 14 inches.
The Megabind 1E also includes a depth of punch margin control and a heavy duty plastic comb opener. These features make it possible to bind documents with plastic combs that are as small as 3/16” and as large as 2” in diameter. This means that the Megabind1E can bind documents with up to 425 sheets of 20lb bond paper. The machine even has a built in binding guide on the document table to help you choose the right size of comb for your project.
This machine includes a foot pedal control for activating the punching mechanism. Using the foot pedal for punching documents allows users to hold the sheets with both hands when using the binding machine. This helps to increase productivity and reduces mispunches.

Limitations/Weaknesses:

The Akiles Megabind 1E has recently been upgraded with a new motor. The previous motor had a punching capacity of only 12 sheets. However, the new motor is capable of punching up to twenty sheets of paper at a time. This isn’t quite as many sheets as the CombMac but is fairly decent.
The chip drawer on the Akiles Megabind 1e is located on the rear of the machine. This makes it difficult to access and empty on a regular basis. It would be nicer if the chip drawer was located on the front of the machine.

Recommendation:

The Akiles Megabind 1e is ideal for organizations that are looking for a heavy duty machine that will be reliable for years of daily binding.
The metal construction, electric punching mechanism, depth of punch margin control, legal size throat and continuous punching guide make the Megabind1e one of the most feature rich machines available on the market.
However the fact that this machine can only punch twelve sheets of paper at a time does not make this machine ideal for high volume use.
