Binding Methods - Double Fan Adhesive (Ultra Bind)
Double Fan Adhesive Binding: 
Double Fan adhesive binding (DFAB) is a library binding style method that utilizes polyvinyl acetate glue (PVA), instead of thread for the binding. This binding method places a microscopic bead of glue on either "side" of the pages after notching the spine edge. This creates a nice lay flat quality. While this method is often used for periodical binding (which may have lighter weight coated papers), we do not recommend an edition to be bound with this method if the interior pages are a coated paper stock such as an 80 or 100 lb text gloss.
DFAB is great for a family history style genealogy edition which will be using uncoated text weight paper on the interior of the book. One of the big advantages here is it is also ideal for short run lengths. Single sheet collated book blocks such as what you would get from a copier or a digital print stream work great. You can also use folded and gathered signatures with this style of binding. The semi automatic machine we use for DFAB is called the "Ultra Bind."
Ultra Bind Specifications:
How to deliver to bindery: 1-up books with 1/8" to 1/4" extra on top, bottom and face edge + a 1/16" extra on spine edge for milling and notching. Always use a brightly colored slip sheet divider between each set of books.
