ABSTRACT:
A method for making envelope blanks from a continuous web of paper such that the cut blanks can move essentially continuously from one or more cutting stations to envelope-gumming and folding stations. The invention is characterized in cutting two or more side-by-side envelope blanks from the web with a minimum of scrap. This is accomplished by cutting adjacent edges of the side-by-side envelope blanks with a common die and along a single cut. Since the sealing flaps of the blanks must face in the same direction in an envelope machine of the type wherein blank cut from a web move essentially continuously through folding and gumming stations, the method of the invention results in side-by-side envelope blanks wherein the side flaps are on the back panel of one blank while they are on the front panel of an adjacent blank or on either alternately.
