How to choose a Baumfolder print, fold and insert configuration

Match the configuration to your line on four points:

• Insertion path: parallel-to-conveyor (this system) vs stage-and-insert vs single-level insert.
• Verification: barcode verification for personalized, mixed runs (see the Century automated insertion and gather, fold and verify systems) vs simpler gather-and-insert where every carton is identical.
• Print stage: black and white vs optional color.
• Integration: the existing conveyor and carton line the system has to feed. A 3-fold insert and apply configuration fits fold-and-apply jobs.
