Abstract
A method and apparatus are provided for manufacturing booklets. Each booklet is made of a cover having two cover sheets and a spine, a bead of glue attached to the inside of the spine, and a sheaf of papers inserted between the cover sheets and attached to the spine by the bead of glue. The apparatus and method include moving the sheaf of papers to a first position by a first transporter, moving one of several covers stored in a cassette to a second position by a second transporter, and moving the sheaf of papers and cover into contact so that the sheaf of papers is enclosed by the covers and a side edge of the sheaf contacts the bead of glue. The assembled booklet moves past a device for activating the bead of glue. A method is provided for filling the cassette, which stores and dispenses the covers, and a method and apparatus are provided for jogging up the sheaf of papers.
