An inserting system (100) configured to adjust alignment of a plurality of sheets of paper (101, 102), in particular outputted from a cutter module (104), the inserter system comprising:
a hold module (106) positioned downstream from a previous module, in particular, the cutter module (104), the hold module (106) including:
a plurality of parallel sheet transports (264, 265) for transporting the sheets of paper (101, 102) in parallel;
a plurality of servo motors (136, 137) configured to drive each sheet transport (264, 265) and each servo (136, 137) motor coupled to an encoder (E1, E2) configured to generate encoder pulses for each rotation of the servo motors (136, 137);
first and second sensors, in particular photo sensors (252, 253), configured to detect a presence of first and second sheets (101, 102) at respective sheet transport entry points; and
an inserter system control computer (130) programmed to calculate an alignment adjustment (A-C) of the sheets (101, 102) in the hold module (106) to account for requirements of one or more modules (108, 110, 112, 118, 120, 122) downstream of the hold module (106), the system control computer (130) configured to:
calculate an initial alignment offset (A-I) between the sheets (101, 102) based on a difference in encoder pulses received between a first detection of the first sheet by the first sensor (252) on the first transport (264) and a detection of the second sheet by the second sensor (253) on the second transport (265),
receive established sheet alignment requirements (O-D, A-F) of the one or more modules (108, 110, 112, 114) downstream of the hold module (106),
calculate an alignment correction distance (A-C), and
control a distance that each sheet in the hold module is to be moved for each cyclic update. |
