ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and process for continuously and sequentially inserting inserts in envelopes are disclosed. The apparatus includes parallel and adjacent insert and envelope conveyors which continuously move inserts and envelopes at identical speeds. An insert cam is disposed adjacent the insert conveyor and includes a portion which causes each insert to slidably move toward the envelope conveyor at the same time that the inserts are being moved parallel to the envelope conveyor. Envelopes are fed onto the envelope conveyor with their flaps up and adjacent and parallel to the insert conveyor. The flaps are opened by a flap opening cam thereby enabling the inserts to sequentially enter the envelopes as the inserts are slidably moved toward the envelope conveyor. A cam then closes the flap on the inserted envelope and the envelope conveyor ejects the inserted and closed envelopes to appropriate locations for further processing.
