Johnnys Kopiering invests in BM4050 booklet maker to expand brochure production capabilities

May 9, 2025 - jameslyon


When a key client needed high volumes of brochures on short notice, Johnnys Kopiering turned to the Plockmatic BM4050 booklet maker – installed and in production the same day.

About Johnnys Kopiering

Johnnys Kopiering is a digital print provider based in the Rörstrand district of Lidköping, Sweden. With roots in the former municipal print shop, the company is now run by Johan Larsson and a dedicated team. Offering a wide range of printing services and strong local presence, they are a trusted partner for both businesses and organizations in the region.

Their print room includes Xerox Versant 280 Press and Versant 80 Press systems, enabling them to deliver a wide variety of high-quality printed materials.

The need for efficient brochure production

When a local customer expanded and required a larger volume of brochures with a short turnaround time, it became clear that Johnnys Kopiering needed to increase their finishing capacity. To ensure consistent quality, precision, and fast delivery, they needed a solution that could handle the entire brochure production process in-house.

We realized it was no longer enough to just be a traditional copy shop. To stay competitive, we had to broaden our offering and be able to handle larger and more complex jobs internally,” says Johan Larsson.

Investing in the Plockmatic BM4050 booklet maker

Johnnys Kopiering decided to invest in the Plockmatic BM4050, a fully automated booklet maker that delivers high precision and supports efficient, versatile production. The system was installed and up and running the very same day.

“The installation was fast and smooth. The machine was essentially in production from day one. It’s been working really well – it’s a fantastic machine to work with,” Johan explains.

The investment has clearly improved both production efficiency and output quality. According to Johan, it’s the system’s precision and ease of use that stand out the most in daily operation. The automatic feeding system uses air separation and monitors each sheet to prevent double feeds, allowing the machine to run smoothly without interruptions.

Adjusting the staple position and fold is done directly via the touchscreen, and takes just seconds. This makes it easy to fine-tune jobs without slowing down production.

“I made adjustments for a test print in ten seconds. The precision is down to 0.2 millimeters – and you can see it in the final result,” Johan says.

He also highlights the system’s flexibility as a key advantage. It handles everything from short runs to longer jobs and switches quickly between formats and paper types. That means they can easily produce a few hundred brochures for one project, and then immediately move on to something entirely different. The system stores hundreds of job presets and supports QR code recognition, simplifying repeat orders.

“It’s a powerful and reliable solution that gives us complete control over the result – in terms of precision, finish, and production time.”

NPC Print Upgrades Morgana Booklet Maker with BM4035 Purchase

February 23, 2024 - webmaster


NPC Print, Mytchett, near Camberley, Surrey, has upgraded its booklet making capability with the purchase of a Morgana BM4035. The new finishing device replaces a previous Morgana booklet maker. The BM4035 expands the range of sizes and formats that can be produced.

The Morgana BM4035 represents the latest style of booklet maker in the supplier’s range. The product can produce A6 to A4 portrait publications, as well as A4 landscape and large format 297mm x 297mm books. It also has the ability to corner and edge staple as standard.

NPC Print founder and CEO, Natalie Puttock, commenting on this latest purchase, said: “We needed to expand the range of formats that we could produce. Most importantly, the ability to produce long sheets, such as A4 landscape products, a format that has become increasingly popular in recent years – jobs that we have had to send out for finishing. The ability of the new BM4035 to produce this format in-house will give us control of that work, as well as saving us money on outwork.
“Having recently taken the decision to upgrade our digital print device to a new Konica Minolta AccurioPress C4070 engine, the new binder will help us to show off both our print and in-house finishing capabilities to the fullest. The square-back capability of the binder is a feature that we can also promote for higher pagination publications – it gives the impression of a perfect bound book.”

“The binder will initially be manually fed, but as print quantities increase, we know that we can easily add an automated feeder on to the unit for higher productivity.”

The company currently utilise other Morgana products in its post-press section, including a Morgana AutoCreaser, and an Intec ColourFlare device for foiling and laminating, purchased through Morgana.

The Morgana BM4035 is a versatile booklet maker designed to work with low to mid volume digital production printers. It delivers booklets of exceptional quality and is able to feed long printed sheets to produce a wide variety of applications, including A4 landscape booklets, which are becoming an increasingly important expectation of customers.

Commenting further on the purchase decision, Natalie added: “Our previous Morgana binder gave us exceptional service – it never let us down. That reliability meant that we didn’t need to even look at any other machines in the market. Everybody at Morgana – from sales to installation personnel – have been helpful and very professional.”
