Abstract (en)

[origin: CA2612910A1] The invention concerns a method for making personalized and unique mailing covers, providing a complete solution, integrating the manufacture of envelopes with that of documents to be enclosed, allowing work at high production rates, and ensuring integrity and confidentiality of the enclosures and reducing overall unit cost. The machine for manufacturing (1) mailing covers (100) comprises in particular a printing device (2) designed to print on a common paper web (10) the documents (13) to be enclosed and the envelopes (14) designed to contain the documents (13), in succession in the order of enclosing, each envelope being preceded or followed by the documents which it is meant to contain, a longitudinally cutting device (3) designed to place said documents (13) at the right width and to form the flaps (16) of the envelopes (14), a transversely cutting device (4) designed to separate the documents (13) and the envelopes (14) by placing them at the right length, a device for assembling (7, 8) the documents (13) with the envelope (14) corresponding thereto, a glueing and folding device (9) for closing the resulting mailing cover (100) and a central control unit which monitors the cutting devices based on the number and the format of the documents and the envelope of the mailing covers to be manufactured. The invention is applicable to batch mailing such as routing, transactional, hybrid mailing.
