1.1 Description
The Buskro BK703 vacuum extension table is a secondary transport table used in
conjunction with other transport bases such as the BK7IB and the BK76IB inline base.
Note that there are two different vacuum extension tables available: the BK703-7IB is the
extension table made for the BK7IB inline base and the other, BK703-76IB, for the
BK76IB inline base. Both vacuum extension tables feature vacuum equipped belts to
assist in product transport (to hold the mail pieces to the belts) as well as adjustable outer
belts to accommodate different mail piece sizes. The main function of the tables is to
support secondary equipment such as heaters and dryers to improve the dry times for
printed material.
In order to drive the BK703-7IB, a power take-off unit was designed to transmit the
mechanical drive from a Buskro transport base to the BK703. For the BK703-76IB inline
base, this is not required. Although it is possible to attach a separate blower to the BK703,
the primary base supplies the vacuum on the standard model.
