High Speed Card Attaching System

World renowned mailing equipment manufacturer Kirk-Rudy produce a number of machines that accurately attach plastic cards, magnets and keys onto card and folded paper for mailing purposes. The plastic card mailing systems affix cards to mailers and can be used as stand-alone units or in-line as a plastic card match and attach system. This enables the printing, card matching/attaching, folding, inserting and sealing to be done in the same process. Insert stations on the envelope inserter can be selected to add further documents which could be single sheets, pre-folded items, books or CDs.

AMS can also supply camera reading, tracking and integrity software to work with the tip on card attaching systems. The documents can be read on entry, tracked through the system and read again at the exit.

Whether you need to add plastic cards to mailers, insert plastic cards to letters or affix plastic gift cards for packaging and presentation, AMS have a solution for you!
