Mail stripper

A mail stripper is a device or tool used to remove the outer envelope or wrapper from a piece of mail, such as a letter or package. Mail strippers are commonly used in the mail processing industry to quickly and efficiently open and prepare mail for sorting and delivery.

There are different types of mail strippers available, including:

  1. Manual mail strippers: These are handheld devices that require manual effort to open and remove the envelope.
  2. Automatic mail strippers: These are machines that use a combination of rollers, blades, and suction to quickly and efficiently open and remove envelopes.
  3. High-speed mail strippers: These are specialized machines designed for high-volume mail processing, capable of processing thousands of pieces of mail per hour.
  4. Digital mail strippers: These are electronic devices that use sensors and algorithms to detect and remove envelopes, often used in conjunction with automated sorting machines.

Mail strippers are used for a variety of purposes, including:

  1. Sorting and processing mail: Mail strippers help to quickly and efficiently open and prepare mail for sorting and delivery.
  2. Data capture: Some mail strippers are equipped with optical character recognition (OCR) technology, which allows them to capture and extract data from envelopes, such as addresses and barcodes.
  3. Security screening: Mail strippers can be used to detect and remove suspicious or hazardous materials from mail, helping to ensure the safety and security of mail handlers and recipients.
  4. Environmental sustainability: By reducing the need for manual opening and handling of mail, mail strippers can help to reduce waste and minimize the environmental impact of mail processing.

Some common features of mail strippers include:

  1. Adjustable settings: Many mail strippers allow users to adjust settings for envelope size, material, and type to ensure accurate and efficient processing.
  2. High-speed processing: Automatic and high-speed mail strippers are designed to process large volumes of mail quickly and efficiently.
  3. Low maintenance: Many mail strippers are designed with easy maintenance and cleaning in mind, reducing downtime and increasing overall efficiency.
  4. Integration with other mail processing equipment: Mail strippers can be integrated with other mail processing equipment, such as sorting machines and conveyor belts, to create a streamlined and efficient mail processing system.
