Prison Shop Upgrades Bindery
North Carolina Correction Enterprises had one major concern with the tower collator in its Quick Copy facility.
“It never ran for any length of time without problems,” reports Jesse Mitchell, Quick Copy plant manager. “It was easier to manually collate.”
With 50 female inmates working two shifts, the in-plant certainly had the labor for this. But the manual method was time consuming, and the tax-supported state agencies that send work to the shop were demanding faster turnaround.
