The Thermal Binding Process binds the pages and Hard or Soft cover together by a heated glue Rigid strip or Ribbon.  Once the glue cools there is a solid bond binding the pages together.  The Marcus M500 and M100 thermal binding machines apply the glue from the top, pushing the glue into the paper creating a solid bond.  In addition, you have the ability to create a label for the spine any way you like to identify the bound document.  The Marcus binding machines will allow the user to bind paper by both the 8 1/2 inch side as well as the 11 inch side.  They can also bind substantially smaller sizes as well.

Other thermal binding machines currently on the market have limitations such as not creating a strong seal, causing the pages to fall out.  Once the page comes out, it can not be put back.  They also do not have the ability to apply a clean, identifiable spine label, and are sometimes limited to sizes smaller than 8 1/2 by 11 inches.
