A GBC Binding machine can be used to hold together any various types of projects. It can do a spiral binding as well as a comb binding giving one plenty of options.
An electric binding machine is a device which binds documents and publications. The machine does this by punching holes into one side of the booklet and then forcing a wire through the perforations.
A thermal binding machine is used to bind documents together by heating adhesive strips within the cover, creating a strong and professional finish. It is commonly used for reports, presentations, and proposals in offices and businesses.
A binding machine works by securely fastening together sheets of paper to create professional-looking documents such as reports or presentations. It typically punches holes along the edge of the paper and then uses a binding element, such as a plastic comb or wire spine, to hold the pages together. The machine may have manual or electric capabilities for punching and binding the documents.
A spiral binding machine uses a coil of plastic or metal to punch holes along the edge of a stack of paper. The coil is then threaded through the holes, which are twisted closed to secure the pages. The machine typically has a foot pedal or button for easier operation.

It all depends on the type of GBC binding machine you will be using. GBC is a major manufacturer of several types of binding machines. Their most popular types of binding machines are comb binding, wire binding and VeloBinding. Comb binding machines use plastic spines, much like what you see in an elementary school. The plastic combs are re-usable and are fairly inexpensive. The hole pattern, on an 8 1/2 x 11-inch sheet of paper is 19 holes. The paper is usually punched, either manually or by use of an electronic motor. The GBC comb binding machine then opens the comb spine where the punched paper is then placed and the comb is closed. The end result looks nice. You can read detailed information on how to comb bind here: http://www.abcoffice.com/how-to-comb-bind.htm Wire binding machines use a metal wire to bind books. Wire binding is often referred to as metal comb binding. There are three types of wire binding machines available. The first is 19-ring, which uses the same hole pattern as comb binding. The second is 2:1 pitch, which is two holes per inch and the third is 3:1 pitch which is three holes per inch. The "pitch" chosen for wire binding is a matter of preference. The 2:1-pitch can bind more pages at once, but the 3:1 pitch has a tighter look. Supplies from one wire binding format cannot be used on a wire binding machine of another format. GBC makes machines in all three formats. The method of binding is very easy. The paper is punched, the wire binding element is inserted through the holes and the wire is closed shut. The wire cannot be re-opened and re-used as with comb binding. You can read detailed information on how to wire bind here: http://www.abcoffice.com/how-to-wire-bind.htm The third and most unique GBC binding format is VeloBinding, sometimes referred to as QuickBinding. VeloBind machines are available in six, nine and 11 hole formats, but the 11-hole format is the most common. These machines are often used by legal offices for binding large volumes of paper. The GBC VeloBind machine punches the paper where the 11-prong strip is placed through the holes. The 11-prong VeloBind machine then cuts off the excess prongs and seals the prongs with heat, preventing them from coming "undone" from the back binding strip. You can read detailed information on how to VeloBind here: http://www.abcoffice.com/how-to-velobind.htm I wrote the included guides. I hope they help! Good luck!
