An Introduction to the GBC Magnapunch Ibico 660ID Punch

For years, customers asked for it – and, continuing in its development of progressive binding machines, GBC answered the call. The GBC Magnapunch (also known as the Ibico 660ID) was the first “easy to change”, interchangeable-die punch for office and industrial use. No tools are required to change dies with the Magnapunch – simply slide in and slide out. GBC’s exclusive pinlock system securely holds punch pins in place when the die is out of the punch. It is simply the best multi-die punch on the market – whether the user is a mid or high-volume user… anyone who has the need for multiple die patterns in the production of their documents can benefit from the Magnapunch. The GBC Magnapunch sets the standard for: Dependability, Productivity and Ease of Use. Speed combined with maximum punch capcity make the Magnapunch one of the most productive punches around – whether it is punching 3 holes, 19 hole or more. In addition to the ease of use in interchanging die patterns, the capability of either the foot pedal or Tabletop Trigger Switch makes punching a breeze.
  • Die sets for different punch patterns simply slide in and automatically lock in place.
  • No tools or fasteners are required
  • Punch pins are easily accessible for punching a variety of paper sizes.
  • GBC’s exclusive “Pinlock System” prevents dies from spilling out when out of the system.
  • Rugged steel forgings and castings make the punch robust and reliable.
