Collators — Freedom of (Much) Choice

Integration can sometimes be a problem with collating systems when a printer needs to run a job off-line, says Oliver Matas, marketing manager for Longford Equipment. "Many collating systems are designed to run as a complete system. Problems arise when the customer requires to add a component or to run a small section of the line in an off-line application. Longford collators are made from individual feeders, thus allowing the system to easily expand and for the feeders to be used in an off-line function without significant changeover time required."
