A thermal binding machine is a device used to bind documents together using heat. It works by applying heat to a special binding cover that contains a glue strip. When the cover is heated, the glue melts and adheres to the pages, creating a secure and professional-looking finish. These machines are popular in offices, schools, and print shops for creating reports, presentations, and other bound materials. They are easy to use and can bind multiple pages at once, making them efficient for both small and large projects. Thermal binding is often preferred for its clean appearance and durability.
