Optional Add-ons & Accessories

Customize your inserter to suit your business needs. More add-ons are available for Epic than any other BlueCrest mail inserter.

Plus Speed Option

Increase productivity and reach speeds up to 24k.

Unlock the combination of speed & accuracy and reach speeds of up to 24,000 cycles per hour, allowing you to meet SLAs faster, without jeopardizing your net good per hour. The Plus Speed is easy to activate on installed systems and enables you to process jobs up to 14% faster, allowing you to increase throughput on low page count work.

Auto Gapping Option

Eliminate the need to separate high-page count work.

The auto-gapping folder eliminates the need to separate low page count work from high page count, and auto adjusts for each collation, resulting in greater uptime. The auto-gapping folder also produces better-finished fold quality of inserted materials. The gapping folder can be configured with new systems or retrofitted to your system at your location.

Booklet Feeder

Support the widest variety of different insert types on one feeder.

Process a wider range of inserts from a single panel to booklets up to 3.8" thick with our universal friction feeder, which offers 5x the material capacity than other feeders, creating greater work cell efficiency. The unique dual-scanning capability allows you to scan barcodes located on either side of the paper. *The booklet feeder can be retrofitted to most Epic inserting systems.

Heavies Divert Bin

Improve the seal and envelope quality of thicker mail pieces.

Designed to maintain the integrity of the seal on thick and flat envelopes, our enhanced design lifts the deck out of the way, allowing the mail piece to drop directly into the bin, therefore reducing jams and system stoppages, and increasing production time.

Input Line Scanning

Eliminate hardware changes and increase code scanning capability.

Save time and change between jobs faster with our latest input scanning capability that scans multiple barcodes on the same form, without having to re-position or adjust the camera before each job.

Cross Folder

For inserting applications that require pre-folding.

Ideal for applications such as passports, surveys, medical forms, and more, the Cross Folder can be added to any continuous form inserter and pre-folds the roll prior to it reaching the inserter, where traditional folding and cutting takes place. This one-of-a-kind design easily integrates with the inserter and adds more flexibility to take on additional work where this functionality is needed. When pre-folding is not required, the Cross Folder can be used in pass-through mode. The universal left/right design makes it easy for input integration. See video #4 below for a demonstration.

Card Attaching

Inline high-speed card attaching.

BlueCrest card attaching solutions provide a range of workflow configurations that can process a wide variety of card types to carriers including, insurance cards, bank cards, gift cards, driver's licenses, and more. Confidently meet SLAs by attaching cards at speeds up to 24k cycles per hour, add variable print, match & verify, insert, and seal, all in the same process to enhance overall operational performance.
