Letters are stacked on top of each other along the track and then pushed into an envelope that is traveling along parallel to the letters. The envelope is sucked open with a vacuum to accept the letters. Then the flapped is moistened with a little brush and sealed shut. Everything is flipped over to keep it in order and so the people operating the machine can watch for different mailing trays, etc.\u00a0<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<div class='gpb-photo-primary'><img src='https:\/\/lh4.googleusercontent.com\/-BhzvH6yfthA\/Umbh0YcY89I\/AAAAAAAAvwg\/utLCrVX5iCg\/design_2.gif?imgmax=1600' border='0' style='max-width:100%;' \/><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<p class='gpb-links' style='clear:both;'> <a class='gpb-linkback' href='https:\/\/plus.google.com\/101083456815352083930\/posts\/QgtsGBuMY77' target='_new'>View this post on Google+<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mechanical things like this impress the hell out of me. \u00a0Something that can take envelopes, fold and insert paper into them, then seal said envelopes &#8212; is, frankly, a hell of a lot more impressive than a mail merge program that spits out emails to people. \u00a0Very cool.
