The Index Basic-D is the most sold Braille embosser in the world. It's portable, easy to use and smart looking. Fan folded paper gives unbeatable stability, offering unmonitored embossing all day long if needed. The Basic-D makes a charming home embosser and an efficient office producer at the same time. It is a great embosser for use in public schools. The "D" stands for double sided embossing, an Index Braille standard. The new Basic-D version 4 (begin shipping 2011) uses the same winning concept as its predecessors but now with many design improvments based on customer feedback and production and service experience of previous versions. The V4 Index embossers take a technological leap from 2001 levels. Externally the V4 line looks almost the same. But Basic-D V4 and Everest-D V4 are better, faster, easier to use, and have longer life cycles than before. In fact, 95% of the components of the V4 embossers were re-designed to make Index embossers even better. Behind the success of Basic-D is its stability and quality construction. The manufacturer is Index Braille in Sweden, an ISO 9000 company that focuses on continuous quality improvement. This has enabled them to keep prices down while at the same time offering embossers with superior performance and lower service costs. Their embossers are compact, fast, interpoint (emboss on both sides of the paper), and come with a 2-year warranty. They are known for their uniform high quality Braille dots - "you can feel the difference." Purchase orders from schools and agencies are gladly accepted.
