Highlights of the system
 

Fact
The Kern 3200 flash can be optionally equipped with an additional envelope magazine. Thanks to this unique concept, the system can process job by job different envelopes, without operator intervention.

No downtimes

 

Fact
Downtimes during an application change no longer exist. Together with the automatic settings and seamless job trasissions, downtimes during a job change are reduced to an absolute minimum.

User-friendliness

 

Job change
The handling of the Kern 3200 flash is simple, intuitive and clearly structured and is operated via a central touch panel. In order to carry out necessary interventions quickly, the operator is supported by images and graphics on the display.

Newly developed inserting module

The Kern 3200 flash is characterised by its modularity, maximum flexibility, very high reliability and simple, intuitive operation. Thanks to the different configuration options, it is suitable for use in the transactional and direct mail markets as well as in letter shops. At the centre of the system is the newly developed inserting module. The inserter is the only system in this performance class that can be equipped with more than one envelope magazine. With this one-of-a-kind concept, the system can process different envelopes job by job without the operator having to make a physical change. Together with the automatic settings, downtimes during a job change are reduced to an absolute minimum. Additional diverting options allow the machine to reject incorrect documents and envelopes without the machine having to stop and the operator having to intervene. All these new features enable uninterrupted processing at the highest level.

Technology

Another highlight of the system is the already well-proven system channel that combines the functions grouping (top / bottom), folding (4-pocket folding unit), rotating (right or left) and turning (by 180°). This makes it possible to process all common types of applications (whether folded or unfolded). Thanks to its modular construction, the Kern 3200 flash can be combined and equipped with a wide variety of modules, whether it’s endless from a roll with the Kern 996 high-performance cutter or a single sheet in combination with the Kern 972 single-sheet feeder. The possibility of integrating up to 16 inserting stations is particularly noteworthy. Friction feeders and rotary feeders can be combined.

Simple system operation

The system is controlled via a central touch panel. The necessary information is displayed to the operator in text and graphic form. At the machine output, the system can be equipped with the inkjet printing system Print@Exit. Like all the other systems in the Kern product family, the Kern 3200 flash can also be integrated into comprehensive workflow systems thanks to its complete ADF integration (mailFactory©).

Input modules Kern 996 and Kern 972

Cutting and feeding documents: The cutting system Kern 996 processes a wide range of applications, offers great flexibility and is highly efficient. The Kern 972 single sheet feeder guarantees a high feeding capacity and ensures processing of up to 45,000 sheets per hour. The full capacity of the fast Kern inserting systems is thus optimally utilized.
