The Thompson Envelope Stream Feeder was designed as an automated
helper for the printer. Once the feeder is set up, it requires very
little of the printers time except for keeping it loaded. This gives
the printer more time for quality printing and stock control. The
press can run continuously at any speed the printer chooses.
For years printers have struggled to print envelopes and other hard
to feed materials. Now the problem is solved with the Thompson T-100
envelope Stream Feeder. With the feeder there is no need to stop to
reload, no more shimming, and no more loading small amounts. Your
press can run all day and print three to six times as many
envelopes. This means increased profits for every hour you run. Set
up time is fast and easy. The feeder loads from the top and feeds
from the bottom to keep a continuous stream of envelopes to the
press and is reloaded with the press running. This eliminates wasted
time from stop, load, and go envelope printing. It also helps
prevent doubles from sticky envelopes
The T-100 is a free standing unit mounted on casters. The base
height is adjustable to aid in leveling it to the press. It can be
set up on or off the press in less than three minutes. It is set on
the elevator table of the press and positioned between the press
stock guides. A rubber tarp strap holds it tight against the press.
When the job is finished, disconnect the tarp strap and roll it
away.
The T-100 will stack eight to twelve envelopes under the press
sucker feet. The stack of envelopes is controlled by a microswitch
which keeps the stack a constant height at all times. As the press
picks up the envelopes the microswitch puts more envelopes under the
bottom of the stack. The feeder motor only runs when the press needs
more envelopes. No timing device is needed. The T-100 can feed in
excess of 10,000 envelopes per hour and the speed of printing is
controlled by the printer.
The T-100 is fully adjustable to feed from 3"x5" to 10"x13".
Adjustment is fast and easy. Up to 500 envelopes can be loaded at a
time and more can be added at any time with the press running. There
is no need to stop the press until the job is finished. Big savings
can also be made on short runs of hard to feed envelopes or other
hard to feed materials.
The feeder is shipped with the side
covers, front and rear stock guides removed. It can be fully
assembled with only a Phillips head screwdriver.
