The stack of collated sheets exits the Pre-fold Accumulator into the Folder.
The Folder then applies a fold to the stack and sends it to the Post-fold Ac-
cumulator. The Folder offers these options:
• C Fold,
• Z Fold,
• Single Fold,
• Double Fold, and
• No Fold.
An optional Inverter may be used for some address location/fold type combi-
nations.
Folder
Post-fold
Accumulator
The accumulation of folded sheets exits the Folder onto the Post-fold
Accumulator area. Other components of the mail piece, such as a Business
Reply Envelope or a pre-folded insert, are added to the accumulation in the
Post-fold Accumulator area. When all components are present, the stack
moves to the Insertion Area.
Insertion Area The contents of the mail piece meet the outer envelope at the Insertion
Area. The envelope arrives at the Insertion Area with its front face down and
flap open. Envelope Openers on the Insertion Area open the envelope wide
enough to allow the contents to be slid inside.
Folder Bypass
Path
The outer envelope, fed from the Feeder, that will contain the collated media
runs through the bottom part of the Transport Deck. The route this envelope
travels is known as the Folder Bypass Path.
As the envelope passes over the Moistener, brushes sweep across the top
of the flap to wet the glued area of the flap. The envelope is then inverted
and slid through the Closer and Sealer portion of the system to complete the
mail piece. From there, the mail piece is dropped onto a stacker.
