Mailing production with WF8 and WM8
Mailing production with WF8 and WM8
Production of direct mail and a self-mailer from pre-printed roll to folded end-product at a web speed of up to 180 meters per minute. The paper web is linear fold, registered superimposed in a WF8 web folder. Then the paper web is pulled in by the web merger WM8 and cut longitudinally. The edges can be trimmed simultaneously. After that, the two web halves are placed on top of one another in the merger and fed to the cross cutter. The CS8 cutting module performs cross-web chip-out before the sheets are presented in-line to the folding machine.
