DETAILED PROCESS FEATURES.
USER-FRIENDLY TOUCH-SCREEN CONTROL CONSOLEFRICTION FEEDER■ The graphical user interface
allows anyone in yourproduction area to operate
the system without any special
skills or training.

■ The simple bin setup
procedure allows you to easilyload each station with a wide
range of sheet sizes, ranging
from A5 to SRA3 (5.8” x 8.3” to12.5” x 18.5”).

■ All operating errors or jams aregraphically illustrated on thescreen for easy identificationand quick recovery.
■ Multiple feed error indicators
allow you to pinpoint theproblem bin and the type oferror.
■ All important operating functions
are centralized on the remotecontrol for operator convenience.
The remote allows the operator tomonitor system operations whileloading or unloading the system.

■ Four sheet-separation options
can be selected to adjust thebin and pad pressures. Thispermits the feeding of a wide
range of paper stocks.
■ Each bin can accept a pile of sheets up to 40 mm or 1.6”.

MEMORIZE FREQUENT JOB SETTING (9 JOB MEMORIES)■ The system can memorize up to 9 different jobs thatare run frequently. For example, collating speed, type ofprogram, number of bins and sensor sensitivity settings
are stored in the system memory for quick restart of aregular job.

ADVANCED PROGRAMMING FEATURES
Double Cycle

Dual Cover Feed

This mode divides the system
into two sections for maximum
productivity. The first section isloaded, production is started, andthen the second section is loaded.
When any bin in the first section
empties, feeding immediately
switches over to the second
section and continues collating.
Divided into two sections.
The operator can then reload thebin in the first section, without interrupting the run.

In Dual Cover Feed mode, thetop two bins are used as cover
Cover
sheet feeding bins, and thoseSheet
two bins alternate for continuous
operation. When using aheavyweight cover, the cover bin
will always empty first. When one
cover bin empties, the system
automatically switches over to the other cover bin. Thiseliminates the need to halt production to reload covers while
ample supplies of text stock are still available.

Combined Mode

The Double Cycle and Dual Cover Feed modes can be
operated together to achieve absolutely maximum
productivity and efficiency.

High Performance Delivery Options.

ST-60 TANDEM STACKER■ When one stack tray becomes full, the collated sets areautomatically delivered to the other stack tray, with nosystem slowdown.
■ Errored sets are delivered to the built-in reject tray for
non-stop operation.
■ A continuously cycling tail jog keeps all sheets well
positioned for superior stack quality.

ST-40 BYPASS STACKER■ Connected between the collating and bookletmaking
systems, the ST-40 serves as a high-capacity offset or
straight stacking device.
■ Errored sets are delivered to a built-in reject tray for bothnon-stop collating and booklet-making production.
■ A continuously cycling tail jog keeps all sheets well
positioned for superior stack quality.
■ The ST-40 is equipped with hand feeding function asstandard.
■ Preset count function allows for efficient stack handling.

SA-40 SUB ACCUMULATOR■ The SA-40 temporarily accumulates the sheets deliveredfrom the collator for stable sheet jog in the stitcher for
quality bookletmaking. Also the SA-40 improves the sheet
jog for the ST-40 bypass stacker.
■ Misfeed detection ensures to eject all the misfed sheets inthe accumulating mode.
■ Sheet delivery angle, assist air, stopper plate, and jog
waiting time are adjustable for running the various type ofpaper.

4Friction Collator SAC-150 seriesSW-20 CRISS-CROSS RECEIVING TRAY
■ The criss-cross receiving tray swings 90 degrees at eachcollating interval, clearly separating collated sets tosimplify post-collating processes. This is also suitable forpiling sets onto previously collated sets.

PJ-77 PAPER JOGGER■ Driven by an independent motor, the paper jogger
vibrates collated sheets into perfect alignment. The jogger
tray rises automatically by a foot switch to start collating.

BOOKLETMAKING SYSTEM SOLUTION
SPF-200 SERIES + FC-200 SERIESBOOKLETMAKING SYSTEM■ High performance in-line bookletmaking
system with collating, stitching, folding andfore-edge trimming. By connecting the TBC200L, top-and-bottom trimming is available
