Boost Mailroom Speed & Accuracy with MB autoSET

Manual mail prep is a bottleneck. It slows down production, invites mistakes, and chews through labor costs. MB Bäuerle’s autoSET 18 and autoSET XT systems attack these pain points head-on. They’re not just fast—up to 22,000 cycles per hour—but also built for precision and flexibility in industries where mis-mailings aren’t just costly, they’re unacceptable.

Speed and Precision, Engineered Together

The autoSET series doesn’t just chase numbers—it delivers controlled, accurate throughput. While the XT clocks in at a blistering 22,000 cycles per hour, it’s the smart engineering behind those speeds that matters. Documents glide through a linear, servo-driven path with no change of direction. That’s not a gimmick—it’s how you maintain integrity and reduce jams at scale.

Envelopes from 105 x 160 mm up to 170 x 250 mm? No problem. Inserts up to 3mm thick? Bring them on. Whether it’s transactional letters, marketing packages, or regulatory communications, autoSET handles it all without manual intervention.

Real Automation, Not Just Buzzwords

Let’s be clear: “automation” is overused. But MB Bäuerle builds systems that automate setup, format changes, and integrity verification from end to end. One central touchscreen controls everything—feeding, folding, inserting, sealing, and stacking. The system remembers up to 50 repeat jobs. Format settings adjust automatically. This isn’t “convenience.” It’s transformative.

Setups that once took 30 minutes now take three. Skilled operators aren’t tied up tweaking paper stops and fold plates. They’re supervising multiple jobs—or in some cases, multiple machines.

Cut Errors, Not Corners

Mis-mailings are dangerous in finance and healthcare. One wrong letter, one envelope with the wrong statement—it’s not just a mistake. It’s a privacy breach.

The autoSET’s optional code-matching and file-based processing features are built to stop those errors before they happen. Cameras verify optical marks, barcodes, OCR, and datamatrix codes in real time. Documents are tracked and matched, and if something goes off-script, the system flags it—instantly.

In-House Maintenance = Lower Long-Term Costs

Many inserting systems lock you into expensive service contracts. Not here. MB Bäuerle’s ergonomic U-shaped layout and maintenance-free servo motors are designed for internal upkeep. Technicians love them. They’re easy to access, simple to maintain, and built to run long and hard.

One field report from AME noted that customers who install one autoSET often install two or three. That’s because once you see the reliability, and realize you don’t need a third-party tech every time a belt slips, the ROI becomes obvious.

Modular by Design, Scalable by Default

The autoSET 18 and XT are modular platforms. Feeders are configurable—suction, friction, or rotary—based on your materials. You can start simple and scale up. Need to process continuous forms and cut sheets? Do it in the same feeding system. Need to add integrity controls, inkjet modules, postage meters, or file-based tracking? All possible.

This flexibility is crucial for companies serving multiple industries. You can tailor your machine to today’s needs and expand as your business evolves.

Built for Compliance, Trusted for Performance

MB Bäuerle has over six decades of engineering expertise in post-press automation. These aren’t repurposed print engines with clunky feeders bolted on. This is purpose-built gear for secure, personalized communication at scale.

Banks, insurers, and health networks rely on the autoSET platform to meet HIPAA, GDPR, and other strict compliance standards. It’s not just about moving paper—it’s about protecting data, delivering trust, and operating with accountability.

Integration-Ready, Workflow Friendly

The open interface on the autoSET series supports easy integration with digital print systems, workflow software, and third-party inserters. Whether you’re operating a standalone mailroom or a tightly coupled print-and-mail facility, these machines plug into your environment—not the other way around.

You can even fold single sheets inline using devices like the Feedline 14 from AME, which works seamlessly with the autoSET without modifying the host machine. This kind of interoperability makes the autoSET ecosystem a strategic advantage for any mailroom modernizing its operation.

Final Word: Invest Where It Matters

Labor’s tight. Errors are expensive. Clients expect faster turnarounds and more personalized mail. The MB Bäuerle autoSET 18 and XT inserting systems meet these demands with brute speed and refined control.

These are not off-the-shelf inserters. They’re precision-built machines for high-volume environments that can’t afford mistakes—industries where every document, every cycle, every second counts.

If your current inserting setup looks like a productivity sinkhole, it’s time to make a move. AME’s consultative model and real-world expertise with MB Bäuerle systems ensure you’re not just buying hardware—you’re building a better operation.

Let’s talk throughput. Let’s talk accuracy. Let’s talk results.
