Meet your Document System2

Introduction

The system feeds, folds and inserts documents into envelopes and then seals and stacks the envelopes. Automatic monitoring ensures the correct number of inserts per envelope.
The system is a sophisticated folding and inserting system which can process large quantities of mail rapidly and easily.
You can save the settings of the system (document type, envelope type and fold type) in so-called jobs.
2
English
The figure shows an overview of the systems document and envelope flow.
3
Page 6
Feeder Area (1)
The system has a feeder block with two document feeders. The feeder block is equipped with feederswap. This means that youcan link both feeders as pairs. When the first feeder is empty, the system switches to the other feeder. Meanwhile you can refill the other empty feeder without stopping the system. The front feeder (feeder 1) is equipped with a “daily
2
mail” function to process documents or sets of documents which cannot be processed automatically (e.g. stapled).
Double Feed Control (DFC)
English
Each feeder has double feed control (DFC). In this way the system can detect faulty sets of documents. When a job is started, the first document taken per feeder is used for a reference measurement. When a document is exceeding that reference thicknessan error will be displayed.
When Daily mail is selected, the DFC is switched off automatically.
Envelope Hopper (2)
The envelopes are picked up and transported to the insert position inside the system.
Feeder for Business Reply Envelopes (BRE) and Other Enclosures (3)
Small enclosures or BREs are fed from feeder 3 and added to the folded document set.
Folding area (4)
In the folding area the documents are folded. The following fold types are possible (see “Terminology” on page 29):
• No fold
• V-fold (single fold)
• C-fold (letter fold)
• Double V-fold (double parallel fold)
Inserter (5)
The folded document set is transported to the inserter unit and inserted into a waiting envelope. The inserter can seal the envelope.
Exit (6)
The mail set leaves the system from the exit.

We recommend that materials to be handled are stored at a temperature of 20°C (68°F) with a relative humidity factor of 50%. If difference in temperature occurs etween store room and mailing area, the material has to be stored near the system at least 24 hours before use. Self-copying paper may cause rubber parts to wear quicker. The rubber used in this system has the best resistance to Wiggins Teape material.

Address carrier
Address position

English
The address carrier is the document that carries the address of the person for who the mail set is meant. The address carrier can consist of one or more sheets, from which at least the first sheet must contain the address. The address must remain visible while enclosures are ad­ded andthe document set isfolded.The foldtype and selected envelope must ensure that the address is visible behind the window in the envel­ope.For personalizedmailings there is alwaysan addresscarrier present as long as envelope printing is not supported. Normally there is one address carrier.
Positionof the addresson the address carrier,measured from the upper left corner. The address position consists of a horizontalx coordinate, a vertical y coordinate, a horizontal width w and a vertical height h.

Double Feed Control (DFC)
Capability of an inserting system to manually insert mail sets one by one intothe system, whichare then inserted into an env elope .Optionally, depending onsettings, additional enclosures canbe added and themail set can be folded. This function is intended for small amounts of mail that each can have a different build-up.
A document is one of the components of a mail set. A document can consist of one or more sheets. Documents can be divided into address carriers and enclosures. For personalized mailings there is always one address carrier and an optional number of enclosures.
The document set is the physical collection of address carrier and en­closure( s) that is under production in the inserting system. The docu­ment set is completed during production and is to be inserted into the envelope. The number of enclosures can range from 0 to the limit op­posed by the number of available feeders. Once the document set has been inserted into an envelope it is called mail set.
Double Feed Control is the sensor that measures the thickness of a sheet to check if the inserting system does not accidentally take more sheets than intended. DFC sensors exist on feeders (double sheet de­tection). Currently DFCson Neopost insertingsystems perform relative measurements, which means that they need a cycle to 'learn' the thickness of a sheet. Also the length of the document is measured so partly overlapping sheets will be detected.

The envelope is the packaging of a mail set. Window envelopes are envelopes that have a transparent section through which the ad­dress on the address carriercan be read. Besides the normal top clos­ing Window envelopes there are also bottom closing envelopes.
Situation in which thefront of a sheet is facing downwardswhen placed in a document feeder.
Situation inwhich the front of asheet is facingdownwards and the topof the sheet is closest to the separation unit in a document feeder.
Situation in which the front of a sheet is facing downwards and the bot­tom of the sheet is closest to the separation unit in a document feeder.
Situation in which the front of a sheet is facing upwards when placed in a document feeder.
Situation in which the front of a sheet is facing upwards and the top of the sheet is closest to the separation unit in a document feeder.
Situation in which the front of a sheet is facing upwards and the bottom of the sheet is closest to the separation unit in a document feeder.
A feederis a module for the input ofdocuments to the insertingsystem. The feeder separates documents sheet by sheet from the stack of documents in the feeder tray.
The ability to load two feederswith the same document type where the inserting system automatically switches to a second feeder when the first feeder is empty and vice versa. In the mean time the first feeder can berefilled, so the inserting system cankeep running without having to stop for refilling the feeders.

The system of all the modules that cooperate to perform the inserting function (accumulate document set, fold and insert) and have a single point of control.
A job is an actually produced collection of mail sets based on a certain job definition at a certainpoint in time fora specific purpose. It consists of:
• The job definition used for the production
• Information about the batch size
The counter that registers the number of mail sets that is produced as part of a specific job.

• Inspect and adjust the stop position of the envelope.
• Check the fold settings for one set.
• Check whether the address is correctly positioned behind the envelope window.
