Abstract

Die Blätter (10, 11) werden zu Stapeln zusammengelegt, die an einer Anschlageinheit (5) gebildet werden. Sobald die Stapelbildung abgeschlossen ist, wird die Anschlageinheit (5) eingeschaltet, so daß der Stapel (9) einer nachfolgenden Station zugeführt wird. Gleichzeitig wird von einem Zuführsystem (7) das Blatt des nächsten zu bildenden Stapels (9) zur Anschlageinheit (5) gefördert. Um eine hohe Leistung zu erreichen wird das Weiterführen des an der Anschlageinheit (5) gebildeten Stapels (9) und das Zuführen des Blattes (10, 11) des nächsten zu bildenden Stapels (9) überlappend ausgeführt. Dadurch werden hohe Taktzeiten und damit eine hohe Leistung erzielt.

Figure 00000001
The sheets (10, 11) are folded into stacks which are formed on a stop unit (5). As soon as the stack formation is completed, the stop unit (5) is switched on, so that the stack (9) is fed to a subsequent station. At the same time, the sheet of the next stack (9) to be formed is conveyed to the stop unit (5) by a feed system (7). In order to achieve high performance, the stack (9) formed on the stop unit (5) and the feeding of the sheet (10, 11) of the next stack (9) to be formed are overlapped. As a result, high cycle times and thus high performance are achieved.
