The CAL-101 Cover/Insert 'Auto-loader' increases the number of covers or inserts that may be loaded into the Smart-binder Cover/insert feeders (CIF-102/CIF-101) from 20mm (0.79") to 200mm (7.87") pile height. This greatly extends the time between reloads and also improves the feed reliability.
The operator may load a large quantity of covers or insert sheets (up to 200mm pile height) into the CAL-101 Auto-loader. The sheets feed out automatically from the bottom of the Auto-loader in a 'shingled' stream.
| Minimum and maximum cover size when cover feeder is fitted with the auto-loader | Length: min 210mm (8.27"), max 320mm (12.6") Width: min 300mm (11.81"), max 472mm (18.59") |
The pile height sensor automatically advances the CAL-101 Auto-loader friction belt when more sheets are needed in the feed hopper.
The pile height in the feed hopper remains at a constant low level, which improves feed reliability by avoiding excess pressure on the bottom cover when a new stack of covers is loaded.
The Auto-loader may not be able to feed sheets with cut-out 'windows' (covers/sheets with windows should be loaded directly into the cover/insert feeder).
