Abstract

The corrector (1) consists of a lower structure (6), and an upper structure (26) which pivots in the horizontal plane and carries a series of conveyor rollers (70) which are in contact with the flat under surface of the panels (8) being transported and are controlled by a separate and variable-speed drive (87). It also has a guide member (100) which moves parallel to an axis corresponding to the initial virtual line of the panels' entry.
