The CIF-102 Cover/Insert Feeder is designed to feed separately printed booklet covers or ‘insert sheets’ as part of a booklet assembled by the IBIS Smart-binder. The CIF-102 is mounted on slide rails over the Smart-binder infeed register table, and will feed a cover/insert at the appropriate place in the sheet stream passing below.

The CIF-102 feeds sheets from the bottom of the pile using a rotating vacuum wheel. Air-blow nozzles mounted at the sides and rear of the feeder help separate sheets from each other in the pile. Covers/inserts may be reloaded on-the-run without stopping the Smart-binder.
