CMC Launches New CMC 400 Evolution – the ALL-IN High Speed Inserting Platform

Press release from the issuing company

CMC srl, a leading manufacturer of Inserting, Paper and Film Wrapping, and Packaging Systems, chose Hunkeler Innovationdays 2015 to officially launch their latest innovation, the CMC 400 Evolution Envelope Inserting System.  

Built upon the industry recognized CMC 400, the Evolution is capable of processing both letters and flats on the same high speed platform; continuing the tradition to provide unique capabilities needed to meet and exceed the expectations placed on systems in today’s demanding production environments.  The system features a continuous motion raceway and simple flap-up inserting mechanism, advanced tracking control to insure document integrity and user friendly set-up and adjustments.  Available with a wide range of input channels, feeder types, and output modules to handle a wide range of applications and media.  CMC inserters are constructed for 24/7 operation, high reliability, high efficiency and little maintenance to help users achieve the lowest cost-per-piece inserting process.

Optimized design allows a maximum rate of up to 25,000 envelopes per hour.  Quick changeover allows C5, C6 and C4 (flats) formats to be processed with filled envelope thickness to 12 mm. The Operator friendly design features:

  • Rotary feeders are standard
  • Hopper height allows easy loading with high insert stack
  • Optional autoloaders for envelope feeder and insert feeders to reduce loading frequency
  • Touch panel control for set-up
  • Format changes can be made in under 5 minutes with easy toolless adjustments
  • Automatic rejection of collation errors keeps system running
  • Tracking control for each document
  • Does not require skilled operators

This new platform will allow transactional mailers, service bureaus and direct mailers to reduce their equipment needs through a single platform operating at higher speeds and efficiencies.

“The proven robustness of the CMC 400 was the perfect platform to continue the Evolution to a single system that can process ALL formats at higher speeds.  The design has been well received by customers here at Innovationdays”, said Francesco Ponti, CEO, CMC srl.
