WARNING
The CMT 330 was designed specifically for use with the
Challenge in-feed and exit accessories listed in this
table. If any other accessories are used, it is the purchaser's responsibility to comply with ANSI B65.4
Safety Standard for Three-knife Trimmers. Failure to
comply with this standard could result in personal injury or death.
CAUTION
The CMT 330 was specifically designed to trim perfect
bound books only. It should not be used for trimming other
materials. Trimming other materials with the CMT 330 may
result in safety hazards or damage to the machine.
For trimmable book sizes, see section 1.7.1 .
See manuals F.501 and F.502, for specifica-
tions for the Book Pile Feeder and the Vertical
Stacker.
Multiple Book Mode: Note that up to 3 books
may be stacked in multiple book mode. The
total thickness is not to exceed 1-1/4 in. (32
mm). Larger pile thicknesses may be cut, but
the trim may be less accurate and more out-ofsquare. Always test before running books outside the published specifications.

CMT 330 Three Knife Trimmer 1-9 Specifications
1.7.1 Book Size Chart
The physical parts of a book are defined as follows and will be referenced as such throughout
this manual. Book dimensions are referenced
as (spine length) X (top or bottom edge length).
Spine: The edge of a book where the pages
are bound together.
Top edge: Also know as the head, the top
edge is the edge of the book that is facing away
from the reader.
Bottom edge: Also known as the foot, the bottom edge is the edge of the book that is facing
toward the reader.
Face: The face or fore-edge is the edge of the
book from which it is opened.
Book block: A book block is the printed and
collated form of a book that does not include the
cover. It contains all front and end matter as
well as the text block.
Untrimmed book: An untrimmed book is a
book block that has been bound with a cover
but has not yet been trimmed to finish size.
Trimmed book: A trimmed book has been
bound and trimmed to a finish size.
Figure 1-2 can be used to determine if a specific
book layout can be trimmed using the CMT 330.
From Error! Reference source not found.,
see that (x) is the bottom trim and (h) is the
height of the book. The book size must fall
within the shaded region of the chart but never
exactly on the sloped line.
The CMT 330 software will not allow a book to
be cut outside this range. The operator should
be aware of these size constraints before books
are printed. The CMT 330 will not allow only
one top or bottom edge to be trimmed.

locations. In order to understand the instructions presented, it is necessary to have a working knowledge of machine locations.
Note: The word "rear" refers to the general direction closer
to the back end of the machine. "Back" refers only to the
backside of the machine.
1.8.1 Front Views
The front views shown in Figure 1-4 and Figure
1-5 locate the front, back, right, and left sides of

1.8.6 Site Specifications
The installation site must have adequate space
and utilities to support the trimmer with its setup
options. It requires a supply of compressed air
and electricity. Refer to section 1.7
Specifications on page 1-8 to verify that the site
can accommodate these requirements. Use the
following figures to determine floor space requirements for the option to be installed.
1.8.6.1 In-Line Option
This In-Line option is used when automated
transport of books from a binder to the trimmer
is required and book size changes are frequent.
It includes the CMT 330 basic machine, two
conveyors, and an elevator. See Figure 1-10
for space requirements.
Note the locations of the air and power hook-up
locations. Air and power lines should be
dropped from the ceiling in order to have clear
access to the waste bins using a rolling cart.
