Abstract

The separating machine has a separating roll (2) which takes over the flat pieces (E, E1) of each row (N1, N2), and an air suction device to hold the flat pieces at their outer surface. The air suction control enables the pieces of the first row to be moved in a first tangential direction and those of the second row in a second tangential direction.
