<p>A method of conveying and merging, at a relative intersection zone (CZ i ), at least one (i-1)th group (2) of shingled mail items with an ith group (2') of shingled mail items, the method including the step of :
a) conveying the (i-1)th and ith groups (2, 2'), as of a start time (t START ), along respective paths to the intersection zone (CZ i );
the method also including the steps of :
b) determining, for each group (2, 2') of shingled mail items to be conveyed and merged, at least the position (P (i-1)0 , P i0 ) of its head (2H, 2H') at the start time (T START ) ; and
c) controlling start-off of each group (2, 2') to the intersection zone (CZ i ) on the basis of at least the position (P (i-1)0 , P i0 ) of its head (2H, 2H') at the start time (t START ).
There is also described a conveying and merging system designed to implement the above method.</p> |
