All three feeders R-20 · BIG

The big one

A high-speed continuous feeder, twenty inches wide by seventeen long. Wide-format feeders used to be too costly, too cumbersome and too complicated. The R-20 runs the large documents, still handles the small stuff, and is compact enough to move from one job in your plant to the next.

What it runs

Big, heavy-duty, and still one at a time

Heavy-duty design with lightweight versatility. Run the large documents, then switch to small media without buying a second feeder.

  • Catalogs and wall calendars
  • Poly bags and poly-wrapped work
  • Corrugated inserts and chipboard
  • Large-format direct mail
  • Bound and tipped pieces
  • Small media down to 2 in. wide, with the card kit
Why it does not double

No nip point on the R-20

The piece meets the separator and buckles instead of getting pinched between two rollers. One leaves the stack, the one under it stays where it is — which is why uneven, glossy and stuffed work runs off the same pile as everything else.

On a wide piece a nip point does not just double — it skews, because the pinch is never even across twenty inches. Buckling against a fixed separator keeps the leading edge square.

  • Four independently adjustable separators, standard
  • More feed belts than the competition, and every one repositionable
  • Complete paper guides, so the piece feeds straight
  • Quick, tool-less setup, and belt changes in minutes

What goes on it

Four add-ons from the R-20’s own list. Leave off the ones the job does not need.

Floor stand

The adjustable-height SS2420 stand, set to the height of the equipment it feeds.

Table stand

For running it on a bench, and moving it between jobs.

Card kit

Takes the R-20 down to 2 in. wide for small media, without giving up the big pieces.

Single-shot and batch counting

Feed one piece at a time, or run to a count and stop on the number.
