The Waco Tribune-Herald Inserter is equipped with the new Quipp Pick Up Station.

The newly designed pick up station eliminates a whipping motion during pick up which could cause a thick product to come out of the gripper as it accelerates out of the pocket.

With the new pick up station every type of product is gently and smoothly removed from the pocket.

The Waco Tribune-Herald ordered three Quipp Viper ¾ Wrappers which are equipped with High-Resolution Ink Jet Systems Powered Side Walls and 20” Extensions.
