An apparatus for inserting one or more goods into a moving cover includes a cover transport, and at least one filling aid configured to move at least partially into the cover and to be maintained within the cover during at least a part of the movement of the cover.
Rotating device for flat products or for a stack thereof
In a device for rotating a stack of two-dimensional sheet-type or film-type products, or a stack thereof, at least two drive-roller pairs (11, 12; 13, 14) which are disposed beside one another so as to be spaced apart for conveying the products (1) are provided, the drive speed of said drive-roller pairs being modifiable in such a manner that the two roller pairs, oriented toward the same conveying direction, are operable at different speeds.
Method and system for synchronizing items using position compensation
The present applications relates to techniques and equipment to control the alignment of cut sheets of paper that are transported in parallel in an inserting system prior to their assembly into a document and inserted into an envelope. The alignment of the parallel sheets is adjusted by commanding incremental position changes to servo drive motors used to control the position of the parallel sheets during their transport through a hold module of the inserting system.
Method and apparatus for processing envelopes containing contents
A method and apparatus for processing mail is provided. A feeder serially feeds envelope from a stack of mail. Two cutters at a cutting station cuts one or two edges of the envelopes. As the envelopes travel from the feeder to the cutters the envelope is jogged on two edges to justify the contents with the envelopes. Additionally, an improved feeder is provided to reduce the number of jams created when feeding the envelopes from the stack.
