DS-77 iQ Folder Inserter
DS-180i Folder Inserter
For high-volume mailers
Fold and insert up to 180,000 envelopes per month
Ideal for high-volume mailers, the DS-180i folder inserter is designed to meet the productivity needs of your mail center. Modular in design, it can be expanded to up to 17 feed stations to ensure you always have the capacity to meet the requirements of your business.
The DS-180i maximizes productivity every step of the way, from efficient paper loading to predictive intelligence that estimates when your job will be completed. The 22” color touch screen is designed for simplicity, making it easy for users in any department to assemble their own mail. And once a job has been programmed into memory, running it is as simple as loading the trays, selecting the job, and pressing start.
When assembling mail with variable pages, the DS-180i's state-of-the-art feeding technology, IMOS operating system, and Automated Insertion Management System (AIMS) guarantee the right documents are inserted into the correct envelope, every time. Each feeder calibrates the first document fed and checks each subsequent document to ensure there are no double feeds.
Automated job changeover and an infinite number of pre-set jobs combine to ensure the versatility and ease of use of the DS-180i.
