FlexFeed
TM
; see 1
The FlexFeed
TM
is the feeding part of the system. There are
two types of feeders available. The automatic and the
special feeder. The automatic feeder does not require any
adjustments for the separation.
The FlexFeed
TM
can be equipped with double document
detection. In this way the system can detect faulty sets of
documents.
The FlexFeed
TM
can be equipped with hopper swap. This
means that two feeders can be linked as pairs. When the first
feeder is empty, the system switches to the other feeder.
Meanwhile the other empty feeder can be refilled without
stopping.
It’s also possible to feed multiple documents from one feeder.
In this way more documents of the same can be fed from one
station, for example an original and a copy of a document.
The automatic feeder can be equipped with a “daily mail”
function for processing documents or sets of documents
which cannot be processed automatically (e.g. stapled).
Collating area; see 2
After feeding, the documents are gathered in the collating
area.
IntelliDeck
TM
; see 3
The system can be equipped with the IntelliDeck
TM
.
Incorrect sets of documents automatically will be thrown out
by the IntelliDeck
TM
. In this way the system does not need to
stop. The correct sets will be transported to the PowerFold
TM
part.
PowerFold
TM
; see 4
The PowerFold
TM
part folds the documents. The following fold
types are possible:
• no fold.
• single fold.
• letter fold.
• zig-zag fold.
• double parallel fold.
Inserter; see 5
After folding the documents are transported to the inserter
unit where the documents are inserted into a waiting
envelope. The inserter then seals the envelope (or not) and
stacks them on the rear receiving tray. Automatic monitoring
ensures the correct number of inserts per envelope.
When a stoppage occurs, the system automatically signals
the operator and gives a suggestion about solving the
problem.
The system consists of the following parts:

inserter.
2. GENERAL
2.1 Understanding the machine
The SI 72 is a sophisticated fold and inserting system which
can process large quantities of mail rapidly and easily. The
system can be operated by means of a user friendly
interface.
The settings of the system (types of documents, type of
envelopes and the type of fold) is recorded in so called
jobs. These jobs can be programmed by an authorized
user.
As a special feature the system can be equipped with a
Load ‘N Go
TM
function. The purpose of this function is to go
to work as quick as possible without doing extensive
adjustments.
