Automatic selection of sleeves printed with advertising for prescriptions

摘要

The selection procedure applies to a set of sleeves printed with different advertising material. The different sleeves are stored in two rows of boxes (1), one row for the sleeves targeted on particular physicians and the other for the untargeted sleeves. A computer stores a list of physicians to receive the targeted material and the number(s) of the sleeves to be sent to them. As sleeves are selected the record of the number remaining is automatically deducted and the result stored on the computer. When all the sleeves are gone from the boxes the computer stops further selection.
