Abstract

The separator has cylindrical tubular rollers (8) running on guidance tracks (6,7) fixed (4,5) to the sides (e.g. 3) of a machine frame. The ends of the rollers are fixed to endless chains. The magazine (12) fitted to the frame sides above the upper set (11) of rollers contains a stack of paper tubes (13) which are extracted by suction boxes (25,26) underlying perforated belt conveyors (17,18) running parallel to each other and driven by motors at different speeds.
