Component Descriptions
l Input Modules - Cut sheet or continuous forms can be cut and accumulated into collations.
Material can be folded based job requirements. (Refer to specific input operator guides for details.)
l Buffer - Transports the collation from the input to the chassis. This area can rotate a collation from
portrait to landscape (P2L) and / or change material from face up to face down (TNT).
l Chassis - Transports the collation under each feeder as it moves it towards the engine. The
chassis supports sub setting. Side guides are automated based on mode configuration.
l Insert Feeders - This is where the inserts are added to the collation based on the mode
configuration. Both friction and rotary style feeders can be intermixed.
l Booklet Feeder - A designated feeder designed to feed booklet style inserts 3 to 10 mm thick.
l Envelope Feeder - Envelopes are staged in this module and fed into the engine as needed.
l Engine - This is where the envelope flap is opened and the collation is inserted into the envelope.
After insertion, the envelope (with collation inside) is transported to the sealer. There are both
manual and automated adjustments in the engine.
l Sealer - This is where the envelope flap is moistened and closed to seal the envelope. The sealer
module has a built-in Vertical Stacker (VS1).
l Turnover - This is used when the application requires postage to be printed on the envelope. The
turnover turns the envelope from face down to face up, allowing you to print on the front of the
envelope.
l Vertical Stackers - These stackers divert and stack good and bad mailpieces, based on
application or system error. A stacker for flats can be installed under a vertical stacker, and is
operator removable.
l On Edge Stacker - This is where the finished mailpieces are stacked vertically, until they are
removed and placed in mail trays.
