Why Your Medical Billing Practice Needs a Folding Machine and Inserter

December 30, 2009 · Filed Under Corporations, Folders, Large Mailroom, Products, Small Business · View Comments 

It’s a highly specialized office. The medical billing practice handles all billing for doctors’ offices, freeing them up to continue to practice medicine. But the medical billing office ends up doing a lot of folding bills and stuffing envelopes.

For smaller practices, you may only have 100 bills a day, but larger practices can get a few hundred bills a day. And for smaller practices to become bigger practices, they need to be able to grow through increased production.

This is where automating your mailing process can really help. With a small folder, like the 87M Manual Tabletop Folder or the 207M Manual Tabletop Folder, or even the Formax FD 320 Automatic Tabletop Folder. These folders can take your bills and fold them into C-folds, Z-folds, or any other kind of letter fold. And with the bigger folders, you can hit speeds of 11,000 pieces per hour.

Or you can even take a step up and try the Formax FD 6100 Inserter, which will fold and insert your bills into their envelopes.

Now, by upgrading to an automated solution, you’ve opened up the possibility to take on new clients, and grow as you can handle new and bigger practices.

Digital printers need scoring machines

December 28, 2009 · Filed Under Sales and Marketing · View Comments 

One of the problems with any kind of print is that if you try to fold an ink-heavy page, like a solid black cover, the ink will crack and break. Folding puts a lot of pressure on a sheet and stretches the ink laying across its surface. The last thing you want is an unprofessional finish to an otherwise slick piece, right?

To ensure a crackless fold and to maintain image integrity, pages need to be pre-scored before they’re folded. Scoring weakens paper fibers by indenting fold lines. The direction of your paper grain is probably the single most important factor to take into consideration when scoring paper. Scoring across the paper’s grain encourages the sheet to crack rather than the ink. This makes your fold look clean and allows sheets to fold flatter.

When shopping for a scoring machine, you want to consider the number it can be programmed for on a single sheet, its speed, and of course, the width of paper it will accommodate. Lloyd’s has some nice machines to choose from, and our staff is knowledgeable enough to help you find the scoring machine that will keep even your heaviest folds, crackless under pressure.
