The device disclosed herein is a device for performing binding functions such as stapling, hole punching, and comb binding. The device includes a housing, lid, slots for receiving sheets of material to be operated on by the punching and biding assemblies of the device. The device includes a lid to close off or inactivate portions or functions of the device and direct or guide the operator to the proper function or assembly to use for the operation. The device further includes an actuator that selectively operates functional assemblies of the device. The device may further include a moveable guide to selectively offset the punching assembly when larger dimensional covers are punched. The device may also include punching die assemblies that are easily moved and aligned from one position to another.

There is disclosed a method of inserting a reinforcing rod into a hole in a laminated material. The method comprises a feed operation in which a feed clamp clamps a rod whilst moving towards the laminated material to feed an end section of the rod through a guide clamp into a hole in the laminated material. The method further comprises a re-supply operation in which the feed clamp releases the rod and moves relative the rod along a return direction away from the laminated material whilst the guide clamp clamps the rod. A corresponding insertion head for inserting a reinforcing rod, and insertion equipment comprising the insertion head and a controller is also disclosed.

A system for producing and positioning multi-tire structural features is disclosed. The system includes a construction vehicle, an actuatable arm extending from the construction vehicle, and a grasper coupled to a distal end of the actuatable arm. The gasper includes a first moving member and a second moving member that are configured to be actuated toward one another when the first moving member is disposed within a first tire and the second moving member is disposed within a second tire. The first moving member comprises a staple driver that is configured to release and force a staple through tire walls of the first and second tires, and the second moving member comprises a staple fastener that is configured to at least partially close the staple after the staple penetrates the tire walls of the first and second tires in order to fasten the first and second tires together.
