Abstract:
Sheet processing systems and methods are provided, including systems and methods for advancing and organizing sheets. System can include an alignment mechanism having an alignment plate, a first advancing mechanism configured to individually advance each sheet of a series of sheets in a first direction from a lower feeder to the alignment mechanism, a second advancing mechanism configured to individually advance each sheet of the series of sheets in a second direction from the alignment mechanism to an accumulator, such that the second direction is substantially perpendicular to the first direction, a sensor configured to read an identification code of each sheet of the series of sheets, and a processor configured to control operation of the first and second advancing mechanisms based on sensor readings of the identification codes.
Abstract:
According to the invention, a system for masking a portion of an envelope near the envelope's perimeter is disclosed. The system may include a supply mechanism configured to support an envelope, and provide the envelope to a first position. The system may also include a transport mechanism configured to move the envelope from the first position to a second position. The system may further include a masking apparatus configured to adhere a masking element to a portion of the envelope near the envelope's perimeter.
