5.3.2 Feeder – batch processing (optional)
Equipped with a feeder, PostBase One can batch process letters and postcards.
Please heed the mail piece specifications and the envelope specifications for auto-
matic feeding and sealing on pages 180 to 182.
5.3.2.1 Preparations
To safely and efficiently process mail pieces in batch, presorting the letters as well as
checking / adjusting the settings for automatic feeding, sealing, and dynamic weigh-
ing are important prerequisites. These preparatory steps are summarised below.
Prepare letter stack Sorting the mail pieces
• Sort out mail pieces that are not suited for
batch processing or automatic sealing
(e.g. catalogues).
• Sort out mail pieces with ‘critical’ demands
for feeding from a stack (such as letters
with sensitive surfaces) and process them
with specific adjustments to the separation
(see overview on page 17).
• Sort mail pieces by:
– Moisten / seal envelopes
– Do not seal.
• Sort by postal products (e.g. postcard, let-
ter, international letter).
• Sort the letters by thickness:
– up to 2 mm
– 3 mm to 5 mm
– more than 5 mm.
• If necessary, sort by other customer-spe-
cific criteria.
These might be:
– dispatching account
– advertising imprints
– predated imprints.
