Flexible Bindery Interface
Eliminate the production bottleneck between your existing bindery equipment and legacy inserters with a Flexible Bindery Interface that can process up to 14,000 MP/HR.
| Overview | Features | Support |
Achieve a fast return on investment with the flexible bindery interface :
- Decrease your cost per mail piece – The Flexible Bindery Interface lets you eliminate at least one discrete manufacturing process
- Gain substantial labor savings – Integrating the Flexible Bindery Interface with a Pitney Bowes inserter requires up to 50% less labor versus legacy swing arm systems and up to 20% less labor than most other high speed inserters
- Improve productivity and reclaim valuable floor space – Replace up to three old swing arm inserters with one high speed Pitney Bowes inserter
- Instant productivity gains – The Flexible Bindery Interface is easy to set up and requires minimal operator training to run
Gaining Productivity
It’s a fast, yet simple solution. We help you put your existing bindery systems inline with the Flexible Bindery Interface. The interface then feeds the folded materials directly into the high speed inserter’s enclosure feeder and from there it is processed and finished, even the highest volume applications are processed fast on these inserters
Work Cell Integration
The Flexible Bindery Interface enables work cell integration in your mail operations. It delivers new opportunities to consolidate floor space and establish a more ergonomic and productive working environment that helps maximize savings with reduced operational costs. This is a key factor to address the increasing pressure on direct mail and service bureaus to make the most of their space and equipment.
Expanding Services
Integrating bindery operations with high-speed inserters allows service bureaus and direct mailers to increase their customer base by expanding capabilities beyond their traditional role with the addition of services for transactional mailers. Additional value-adds include integrating scalable integrity to application processing for a more comprehensive offering of quality mail pieces.
