20150128533 | APPARATUS FOR INSERTING DOCUMENTS INTO ENVELOPES AND ASSOCIATED METHOD - An apparatus inserts documents into envelopes and includes a document insert station and a document conveyor that conveys documents to be inserted within envelopes to the document insert station. Each envelope has an envelope opening and a flap to close the opening and defines a hinge line. An envelope feeder feeds envelopes upside down on the hinge line with the flap up into the document insert station and angled from the document conveyor. An insert plate is positioned at the document insert station that receives a document conveyed from the document conveyor and includes orifices though which air is blown onto the envelope fed into the document insert station to open the envelope and receive a document conveyed from the document conveyor. | 05-14-2015 |
20150057140 | FOLDING MACHINE AS COMBINED KNIFE AND BUCKLE FOLDERS - A folding machine includes an accumulator that accumulates at least one sheet of flexible substrate material. A knife folder is adjacent the accumulator and has a knife fold plate that receives the at least one sheet and a knife blade that reciprocates against the at least one sheet. Buckle fold drive rollers are adjacent the knife folder and receive the at least one sheet driven from the knife blade to form a knife fold.

20100288143 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR FORMING DEBIT CARD USING IMPROVED PRINT CYLINDER MECHANISM - A flexographic printing station prints at least one print stripe of opaque scratch-off coating onto the surface of the card over a PIN as a card member is advanced into a printing station. A print cylinder has a circumferential printing surface that engages an Anilox metering roll and receives the scratch-off coating therefrom and transfers the scratch-off coating from the printing surface onto the surface of the debit card. A controller controls movement of the print cylinder via a mounting mechanism into and out of engagement with the surface of the debit card at a predetermined location and for a predetermined length of time to apply at least one print stripe of predetermined length onto the surface of the debit card based on the length of time the printing surface engages the surface of the debit card. | 11-18-2010 |
