  • Page 134: Terminology

    Terminology Terminology Term Description Address carrier The address carrier is the document that carries the address of the person for who the mail-set is meant. The address must remain visible while enclosures are added and the document-set is folded. The fold type and selected envelope must ensure that the address is visible be- hind the window in the envelope.
  • Page 135 DFC sensors exist on Feeders (double sheet detection). Currently DFCs on Neopost inserting systems perform relative measurements, which means that they need a cycle to 'learn' the thickness of a sheet.
  • Page 136 Double V-fold The double V-fold is a type of fold where the document is first folded halfway and the resulting folded set is again folded halfway. This fold is illustrated in the picture below. The position of both folds is adjustable. Synonym: double parallel fold. Envelope The envelope is the packaging of a mail set.

  • Page 138 The Loc is the unit in the system that transports the envelope just after the document was inserted. It is called Loc (short for locomotive) as the early developments had a straight cover and a number of transportation rollers sticking out. This made it look like a locomotive from the side. In the current systems the loc also carries the brush holder and sealing rollers.
  • Page 139 Test run A test run is intended to validate the settings of the Inserting System: • Inspect and adjust the stop position of the envelope. • Check the fold settings for one set. • Check if the address is correctly positioned behind the envelope window.
