New Technology Moves from Flats Processing to Letter Processing in Minutes
DURHAM, N.C., Oct. 27 /PRNewswire/ -- BOWE BELL + HOWELL, a leading
provider of document processing and postal solutions, today unveiled the
new Combo(R) inserting system, designed expressly to answer the mail
processing industry's demand for a multi-application inserter that can
change over from flats to letters quickly.
Its rapid changeover from flats to letters -- in minutes, rather than
hours -- makes the Combo system the foremost inserter for flexible,
high-speed applications. Exclusive to the Combo system, the EASE(TM) (Every
Application Setup Easily) system dramatically reduces the number of steps
required to change over from one job to another and can meet the needs of
the most challenging environments. EASE incorporates a wide range of
innovations, including self-locking synchronized guide adjustments, an
inserting station elevator and uniform hinge-line registration.
Combining the functionality of multiple inserters, the Combo system
handles applications for nearly any mailing operation, processing envelopes
at rated speeds of up to 12,000 cycles per hour for letters and up to 9,000
cycles per hour for flats. The Combo system also features the new,
patent-pending Control Document Collator, which provides operators a range
of options for control documents and inserts.
"The Combo system is a result of our commitment to deliver mail
processing solutions that streamline our customers' production process and
eliminate the need for multiple inserting platforms," said John Lombard,
BBH president of Field Operations. "Our customers' input and our focus on
their success guided the design of this innovative system."
Reading technology can be added to the system to further increase the
integrity and quality of mailings. VEKtor(TM) reading setup is performed
exclusively through BOWE BELL + HOWELL's BICOS(TM) operating system with no
manual operator adjustments for quick changeover. This superior vision
technology can support reading of graphics and color recognition.
BOWE BELL + HOWELL will showcase the Combo inserting system at GRAPH
EXPO, booth 1253, to be held at Chicago's McCormick Place, Oct. 26 to 29.
