Abstract: The present application relates to a mail processing system and related method containing dynamic speed control which uses real time and historical system parameters to dynamically control the cycle speed of an inserting or wrapping system to optimize system efficiency, and maximize throughput and performance. A document processing system with dynamic speed control analyzes system parameters. When the operational conditions are favorable the system will increase cycle speed of one or more of the mail processing components of the system in increments until an optimal speed is reached. Likewise, if conditions are unfavorable the system will decrease cycle speed of one or more of the mail processing components of the system in increments until an optimal speed is reached.

Abstract: The present invention is especially suited for tomographic X-ray studies wherein dozens of exposures are required. A film cassette spacer having selected dimensions and having selected markings thereon is placed adjacent to the film cassette on a mechanically centering bucky tray in an X-ray machine. By use of the collimating means in the X-ray head, the number of exposures on the film can be maximized but still maintaining quality exposures for reading.
