Examples For example, upon receipt of a personalized letter on the entry channel of such a system, a bar code printed thereon is detected to obtain the information required to produce the group from the job description.

This configuration makes it possible to monitor the formation of groups or subgroups at any, even at different positions of the paper handling system, e.g. at critical locations where multiple goods or groups of goods are merged (e.g., collection station) or processed (e.g., folder).
  • an error can already be detected beforehand in various places, e.g. in the entrance channel.
  • Such goods and / or faulty groups identified as defective are removed from the paper handling installation or marked as defective prior to the group being moved out. If this group is intended for a review, this situation would lead to an error detection because the group under investigation would be recognized as incomplete. Since the group was previously identified as faulty, it would now come to an unnecessary stop the system. In order to avoid this, the controller is informed that this group is skipped for checking, and e.g. only at the next group in the order or in the job description a check is made (modification of the event).

Abstract

Une installation de manipulation de papier sert à la production de groupes de marchandises, chaque groupe comprenant une pluralité de marchandises. L'installation de manipulation de papier comprend : au moins un canal d'amenée (202, 204) pour la réception des marchandises, une section (200) destinée à générer des groupes à partir des marchandises reçues, une station de contrôle (210) destinée au contrôle d'un groupe produit, un détecteur (214) destiné à détecter des caractéristiques prédéterminées sur des marchandises d'un groupe déployé, et une commande (218). La commande (218) est agissante en vue de déterminer si l'on est en présence d'un événement prédéterminé, afin de commander la station de contrôle (210), en vue de contrôler un groupe au cas où le résultat prédéterminé est apparu, en vue de déterminer si, pendant un intervalle prédéterminé, on obtient des informations fournies par le détecteur (214), en vue d'arrêter l'installation de manipulation de papier, au cas où, pendant l'intervalle prédéterminé, aucune information n'est fournie par le détecteur (214), information indiquant que le groupe déployé ne satisfait pas à au moins un critère prédéterminé.
