摘要:
A method of controlling a web in, for example, a web cutter that minimizes the destructive forces that are experienced by the web. The method includes providing a motor system for driving a web handling mechanism structured to move the web, wherein the motor system includes a motor and a motor control subsystem having a digital filter (such as a PID controller or some other suitable closed loop controller), detuning the digital filter, and using the motor system having the detuned digital filter to drive the web handling mechanism.

An edge justification device for a mail processing machine. The device shifts the mailpiece from bottom edge justified to top edge justified. The amount of shift is determined as a function of the height of the mail piece. One embodiment solves the problem of switching from bottom to top registration by having a series of steerable nips, which are arranged in line, parallel to the mail flow direction. As the mail piece travels though the justifier, the nips will rotate to impart a lateral velocity to the mail piece, shifting it over to properly justify it. In a further embodiment, the nips of the justification device are not steerable. Rather, a whole nip assembly that is transporting the mail piece is moved laterally to switch from bottom to top justification.
摘要:
System and methods of controlling a plurality of motors based on a motor motion attribute, such as rotor position, velocity, or acceleration, which simulate the properties of a mechanical differential, including a pure differential, a limited slip differential, and/or a locking differential. The method may be employed in a number of applications, including, without limitation, a paper handling system, such as an inserter, to control the nips of a pinless cutter of an inserter, and in a vehicle.

An apparatus includes a first feed path configured to transport an envelope from an input at an envelope supply to an insertion location, and a second feed path configured to transport the envelope with a mail piece insert therein from the insertion location to an output. The first and second feed paths intersect at an intersection spaced from the insertion location. The paths are angled relative to each other at the intersection.

A sheet material feeder includes a sheet material web, a vacuum box applying a tension force to a portion of the sheet material web extending into the vacuum box by applying a first vacuum force on the sheet material web, a first drive feeding the sheet material web into the vacuum box, a second drive pulling the sheet material web out of the vacuum box, and a system for applying a braking force to the sheet material web proximate to the vacuum box only during a decelerating movement of the sheet material web at the second drive.
摘要:
A system for conveying mailpieces along a feed path including first and second conveyances. A first conveyance is operative to convey mailpieces along the feed path and includes a singulating and drive belt. The singulating and drive belts define a throat or singulating a mailpiece from the stack of mailpieces. A second conveyance accepts mailpieces from the first conveyance and conveys singulated mailpiece downstream of the first conveyance. The system further includes a series of sensors extending from the first to the second conveyance for issuing a gap signal indicative of the relative spacing between sequential mailpieces along the feed path. Additionally, the system includes a means to vary the velocity of the drive belt based upon the location of the gap signal along the series of sensors.
