- Sort/Stack mode -
[G]
In this mode, copies pass from the turn gate section to the bins.
The turn gate solenoid [A] stays off and the turn gate [B] stays up when the
S/S roller drive motor [C] starts rotating. The turn gate directs copies
downward and the bin transport belt [D] exits copies to the bin through the
bin transport and bin exit rollers [E and F].
The jogger bar [G] then moves the copy towards the front and jogs it against
the front side plate to square the copies.
The bin lift motor [H] turns on when this jogging operation is almost finished
and advances the bin one step up along the bin cam track [I]. The bin lift
motor stops at the proper time to position the next bin at the bin exit area.
This bin movement is done for each copy in sort mode and for the final copy
of each original in stack mode.
The up and down movement of the bins in both sort and stack modes is the
same as for other moving bin type sorters.
