ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for tipping an insert onto a signature being moved by the main conveyor of a collating system. An insert is removed from a standard hopper of the collating system and is directed into a position to be moved by an auxiliary conveyor in timed relationship to the movement of a signature by the main conveyor. The auxiliary conveyor moves the insert in a proper spaced relationship to the signature being moved by the main conveyor. As the signature is moved past an adhesive applying station, adhesive is applied to the signature and the auxiliary conveyor then brings the insert into juxtaposition with the moving signature. According to the preferred embodiment, pressure is applied to the signature and insert shortly after they are brought into juxtaposition with each other to promote adherence of the insert to the signature.
