Sheet material processing

A feed mechanism feeds sheet material sequentially on demand to a take-up mechanism of processing machinery. The feed mechanism has a feed table with a gate. Sheets may be stacked against the gate, which allows only the lowermost sheet to pass therebeneath. Rollers within the surface of the table are rotatably driven to advance the lowermost sheet beneath the gate to the take-up mechanism. A restraining device prevents freewheeling over run of the rollers. The sheets may be longer in length than the circumference of a tool-carrying roll set used to process the sheet. The difference is accommodated by transferring sheet feed through the nip between the tool set and a separate servo-controlled drive upstream of the nip.

Motion control methodology for a high-speed inserting machine or other mailing apparatus

A methodology for generating a motion profile for an axis of a motor in a mailing apparatus, the linear or angular motion of the motor axis imparting a motion to a sheet or envelope being conveyed by the mailing apparatus. The methodology includes four processes for generating a segment of a motion profile, depending on whether, for the segment, absolute positional synchronism (of the motor axis to be controlled relative to another motor axis) is needed, or whether a so-called quick step is needed, i.e. a change in velocity corresponding to acceleration that varies during the step. The processes include: forward integration, given the jerk (acceleration per unit time) and starting acceleration as well as initial values of position and velocity; non-parabolic displacement mapping (sometimes called electronic gearing) relating the motion of the axis to be controlled to the motion of another axis where the function expressing the mapping is not parabolic in the commanded or actual position of the other axis; integration based on a velocity equation that is parabolic in time; and a parabolic displacement mapping, i.e. a displacement mapping using a function that is parabolic in the actual or commanded position of a reference axis.

Web handling apparatus

WEB HANDLING APPARATUS ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An apparatus is provided for handling a web of material fed from a roll. When the roll is larger than a selected amount, a roll contacting belt contacts the outer surface of the roll to aid in rotating the roll. The roll contacting belt is speed-responsive to a tension sensing means. Once the roll decreases to the selected amount, the roll contacting belt is disengaged from the roll and a positive drive controls the speed of the roll. This arrangement reduces web upsets caused by out of round new large rolls and eliminates telescoping due to the action of the belt against small diameter rolls. In the illustrative form of the invention, the apparatus provides a continuous supply of web material by handling a first roll from which web material is being fed through an infeed roller and a nip roller, and a second roll from which web material is fed after the web material of the first roll has expired. The speed of the first roll is controlled by the positive drive and when the web from the first roll has almost expired, the roll contacting belt contacts the outer surface of the second roll to aid in its rotation. A web tension sensing means controls the speed of the infeed roller, which speed is transmitted to the roll contacting belt so that the speed of the web at the infeed roller and the speed of the roll contacting belt are matched. The web from the first roll is adhesively connected to the web from the second roll and then severed, while both webs are at the same speed.

The sensor system further comprises a controller connected to the emitter and receiver and adapted to adjust the intensity of light emitted by the emitter in accordance with the intensity of light received by the receiver such that when the upper and lower portions of the feeder system are in the jam clearance position the second region of the document path is illuminated by the light emitted from the emitter.
