Inserting System Kern 3500
Kern - a market leader in providing mailroom solutions-
has now introduced its latest technology - The Kern 3500 - to its comprehensive
range of inserting systems. Its unique design and high speed capabilities
mean the K3500 can process pre-cut single sheets, as well as continuous forms
from fanfold stacks or rolls, more efficiently than ever before. The K3500
utilises productivity-enhancing systems such as Kern's mail traying and trend
setting software suite mailFactory, for a truly impressive total
solution.
The Kern 3500 is the gateway to successful, flexible high
speed mailings.
Adaptable
The Kern 3500 is constructed using well-established and proven Kern
components. In order to adapt to the widest variety of mailroom environments,
the system’s speed is continuously variable. When a job is started, the
processing speed is automatically adapted to the application being run. When
the system is geared to highest productivity it is capable of handling up to
22,000 insertions per hour.
Secure and modular
Thanks to the Kern 3500’s modular construction, future upgrades to the
system and integration of new or different hardware and software features are
always possible. Kern’s proven reading systems and comprehensive paper-flow
monitoring ensure that document integrity is maintained throughout processing.
Reliable
With high-performance inserting system, it is the input and output components
that determine how economical, productive and reliable the system is as a
whole. Kern’s enclosure feeding modules can handle a wide variety of inserts
and document groups, ensuring a constant and reliable flow of mail pieces which
speaks for itself.
User friendly
A variety of enhancements and design features enable an operator to programme
the K3500 quickly and easily for a wide range of applications. The system’s
straight linear design contributes to its user friendliness and ease of paper
handling. Rapid changeover of the envelope size setting from C6 to C5 is
a key design feature. All the Kern 3500’s components allow easy access and
are modular replaceable.
22,000 insertions per hour, modest space requirements, and state-of-the-art
system communication technology
As a customer, you have to face growing demands for greater flexibility,
shorter production times, increased differentiation and more automation. The
Kern 3500 was designed to meet each of these specific needs. Kern technology

Kern wins a second iF design award
The noted “Industrie Forum Design” (iF) prize has again been
awarded to a Kern product: the unique Kern 3500 Dual-Channel Inserting and
Mailing System.
The new Kern 3500 exterior was shown for the first time at the
PRINT 05 in Chicago, and will be presented at Océ Open House (Germany) in March
2006
Kern 4000 Mailing System: Great for large envelopes!
The Kern 4000 Document Inserting System enables the simple, rapid and accurate
processing of mailings calling for envelopes as large as 9x12 inches. Thanks
to the machine's well-conceived modular design, your printed output can be fed
sheet by sheet or as continuous forms via several intake channels and then
conveyed for further handling through any number of additional components such
as collating, converging, turning and inserting stations. The system also
allows the processing of documents printed on two tracks.
Additional advantages of the Kern 4000: the attractive appearance of
uncreased documents, several variations of optical reading, suitability for
multiple-shift operations due to the machine's sturdy construction. Easy
access to the document and envelope paths makes it possible to resume
production quickly when the machine stops. And the ergonomically correct
working height makes the Kern 4000 extremely popular with operating personnel.
The Kern 4000 is particularly well-suited for banks, service providers,
telecommunications companies and insurance companies. Its compact,
task-oriented design means that the system takes up amazingly little space.
Compared to all the talk about its performance, you can barely hear the
Kern 4000. The system runs quietly, efficiently and reliably - typical of
Kern!
Cutting up is allowed.
Whether it's a continuous-forms cutter combined with a pre-grouping module,
or an automatic cutter combined with a merger, the customer always gets a
tailor-made input configuration. Even documents printed on pinless
stationery can be cut with precision.
Group picture: with DEG Module.
As many as 20 pages can be pre-grouped by the direct-entry grouping module.
Collated documents are transported along the chain to the inserter.
Please turn over!
The document turner puts the right spin on things - so that they come out
with the printed side facing up or down however you want it! The recipient's
address is always positioned correctly in the envelope window.
Fold to the required size.
The inclusion of a folding module enables you to fold A4 or letter-size
documents, thus making it possible to use smaller envelopes as well. In no
time at all, the compact folding unit can be adjusted for a wide variety of
folds.
Staple what belongs together.
The stapler adds still another dimension to the processing of documents
within a comprehensive modular solution. Finishing on demand!
Insert – with or without enclosures.
You select the number of enclosure stations. At the inserting module,
enclosures - which can vary considerably in terms of size, paper quality and
thickness - are added to the documents arriving from the Input modules.
Optical codes an the main documents tell which addressees are to receive
which enclosures.
