CHAPTER 2 OUTLINE OF OPERATION
5.4 Stack Feed System
5.4.1 Outline
The stack feed system feeds the stitched paper stack to the folding position.
When stitching is complete, the feed motor (M1) rotates, causing the stack feed roller (up-
per) to descend. The paper stack is sandwiched between the stack feed rollers. Then, the
bind clutch (CL1) is turned ON to rotate the feed motor (M1) in the forward direction, thus
feeding the paper stack to the folding position. The feed amount is equivalent to the number
of pulses used to drive the feed motor (M1) until the paper stack reaches the folding posi-
tion.
