Performance, mailing integrity and a small footprint
The Mailmaster Ascent envelope inserter handles C4, C5 and DL envelopes, inserting at speeds of up to 8,000 completed envelopes per hour.
It combines a unique new design with proven technology, backed by over 60 years experience in mailing.
Designed and manufactured in Britain, this comprehensive enveloping system offers flexibility and durability combined with ease of set up.
Four insert stations can handle a wide variety of material including single sheets, card, reply envelopes, pre-folded items, stapled sets, CD’s and booklets.
The operator can pre-select the number of items fed from an insert station.
The Fast Sheet Feeder can feed, accumulate and insert flat for C4, or fold and insert for DL and C5 according to codes read on the documents.
Our camera reading system adds more flexibility as it reads OMR, 1D and 2D barcodes in either orientation on the page.
Our reading technology facilitates batching the prime document, selection of inserts, merging and matching of two or more streams of personalised documentation including envelope-matching, diverting of filled envelopes before sealing, envelope marking, document tracking and integrity checking.
An important feature of the Mailmaster Ascent is the remarkably quick changeover from one job to another that is possible, even to go from DL to C4.
The touch screen controls the machine operation, such as station selection, speed control, re-settable counter, help pages, output speed and error location display.
Job control and reporting software is available which provides further on screen run information, and facilitates job control, document tracking, data storage and reporting.
