BSF

Near line sheet feeder

BSF is a Near-Line high volume sheet feeder that converts your stacks of pre-collated documents, coming from color or monochrome digital printers, or from offset presses, into stitched – fold – trimmed booklets, with a guaranteed set integrity.

A paper feed system, extremely reliable, based on almost 50 years paper handling experience, together with the capability of transferring directly stacks from printer to feeder provide this solution with optimal productivity.

Advantages

The BSF will receive the carts, dollies or pallets supplied with the following digital printers:

  • Xerox DocuTech® and Nuvera® – DS5000 and DS3500 stackers
  • Kodak Digimaster® High Capacity Stackers (5000 sheets)
  • Océ Varioprint® 5000 - High Capacity Stackers (5000 sheets)
  • HP Indigo Presses 3500, 5000, 5500 et 7000
  • Furthermore, stacks created on stackers connected to Xerox iGen 3 ® and iGen 4 ® may easily be moved from iGen cart, equipped with optional adapter, to special tray inside BSF. (Max. length 20,5" or 520 mm)


Manual loading for stacks coming from not supported printers or offset presses is of course possible. Manual loading tray is supplied with all BSFs.

As the full finishing line is controlled from a unique user interface, data used for setting up the different modules are checked automatically for consistency before starting operation. This unique feature is not only reducing setup time but as well minimizing opportunities for operator mistakes. Controller open architecture design enables connection to print flow servers and cost or productivity audit systems.

Equipped with large suction belts, the paper feed device is able to reliably feed a very broad range of printed media. It also is capable of handling stacks that are not perfectly flat.

In case of miss feed, the feeder is trying again to feed the sheet. In case of double feed, feeding process is stopped to avoid stitching corrupt sets. Double feed detection is using ultrasonic sensors, that do not require calibration.

System configuration (accessories connected) and parameters setup allow operator to define system behavior in case of double feed (eject corrupt set with or without stop, continue,...)
