High-throughput mailing machine timing.

摘要

A mailing machine 11 for high-speed processing of mixed mail is capable of high throughput, and is of compact size. It includes mail piece processing at four main stations 15, 17, 19, 23 in a straight-through manner, under positive control, by a motor controller system 13, at all times by separate drive units at each station. The sequential processing actions are timed to optimise throughput of mail pieces.
