Pitney Bowes Mailstream Direct

Direct mail processing has never been more competitive. Deadlines are tighter and margins have never been lower. To be competitive, you need the most productive inserting equipment available. Introducing the factory – remanufactured Pitney Bowes Mailstream Direct Ultra-High-Speed Inserter.

Ultra-High-Speed Inserting. 22,000 Cycles Per HourThe PB Mailstream Direct is the most successful ultra-high-speed inserter ever produced. These machines, which originally cost close to a million dollars new, are brought into the PB factory, completely rebuilt, and modified for the direct mail industry and released with the new name: Mailstream Direct (Direct mail). With a cycling speed of 22,000 pieces per hour, average output to the conveyor including read and print is 15,000 to 18,000 pieces per hour.

Built-in Quality Control Sample DivertsUsing the inserter’s operating system, and dedicated quality control diverters, the Mailstream Direct can divert based on true user-defined statistical samples or random samples. The QC process dedicates one of the divert bins for QC pieces. With an optional camera system, QC pieces can be identified within a barcode or OCR number, and then diverted.
