Method for committing material to a module of an inserting system
A method for maximizing the overall efficiency of an insertion system by running the system with the optimal balance between system throughput and potential for system stoppages. In other words, the system is capable of running at less than maximum throughput if running at such throughput is causing excessive amounts of system stoppages and thus, negatively impacting overall system efficiency. The foregoing is accomplished by an algorithm that controls the flow of material being processed by a particular section of the machine, or “module”. This algorithm is capable of reducing the flow rate of material to, or within, that module if a problem arises downstream that may lead to a paper jam.
