IMAGE FORMING SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18365293 titled 'IMAGE FORMING SYSTEM
Simplified Explanation
The image forming system described in the patent application includes an image forming apparatus with a fixing unit, a folding processing portion, and a pressure-bonding portion. The system processes first and second recording materials with different basis weights and temperatures before pressure-bonding them after specific time periods.
- The system fixes a first recording material with a lower basis weight at a lower temperature and pressure-bonds it after a shorter period.
- A second recording material with a higher basis weight is fixed at a higher temperature and pressure-bonded after a longer period.
- The second temperature is higher than the first temperature, and the second period is longer than the first period.
Potential Applications
This technology can be applied in industries that require high-quality printing and binding processes, such as publishing, packaging, and advertising.
Problems Solved
1. Ensures proper fixing and pressure-bonding of recording materials with varying basis weights. 2. Improves the overall quality and durability of printed materials. 3. Enhances the efficiency of the printing and binding process.
Benefits
1. Consistent and reliable results in printing and binding operations. 2. Increased durability and longevity of printed materials. 3. Enhanced productivity and efficiency in image forming processes.
Original Abstract Submitted
An image forming system includes an image forming apparatus including a fixing unit, a folding processing portion, and a pressure-bonding portion. A first recording material having a first basis weight is fixed at a first temperature by the fixing unit and then is pressure-bonded by the pressure-bonding portion after a lapse of a first period. A second recording material having a second basis weight is fixed at a second temperature by the fixing unit and then is pressure-bonded by the pressure-bonding portion after a lapse of a second period. The second basis weight is larger than the first basis weight. The second temperature is higher than the first temperature. The second period is longer than the first period.
