  • the suction ramp is located at the support head, slightly behind, about 8 to 10 cm. It is perpendicular to the direction of passage of the support. Its function is to lift the first support support on the top of the stack, and to bring it to the grip of pliers, via a system of acceleration by wheels. It has 10 suckers distributed on a support and according to the different formats of support. Depending on the formats used, some suction cups, those of the ends, are in the "vacuum". Suction cups can close and open to fit the media format.
  • the back and forth suction ramp is synchronous with the suction box and the gripper.
  • the clamps are ten on each bar with intervals taking into account the different formats.
  • Each clamp must have a clamping of about 350 g minimum.

This device is located at the end and recipe side 7, so the natural lengthening of the chain is compensated. Guides are arranged on the taut strand of the chain to prevent vibration and counteract reactions due to the clamp openings. The feedrate and the speed of the chain are synchronous with the suction ramp and the suction box.

  • the (re) positioning of this motor inside the rack 5 is an accuracy of 0.1 mm amplitude to be in adequacy with the margin table rectification system 1.
  • An engine attachment system is designed to allow another completely different engine or to replace a defective motor, but of similar size, to easily adapt.
  • a collecting belt 6 transports the media at the rack outlet 5 to the recipe 7 with a referencing of the support.
  • the speed of the belt 6 is comparable to that of the distribution 4.
  • the carpet 6 will be started as soon as a support comes out of a rack 5 and will be stopped as soon as there is more support to transport.
  • Recipe 7 operates in a similar way to margin 1. It receives the printed media from all racks 5 through the collector mat 6. Recipe 7 must be equipped with a real-time automatic upgrade to keep the top of the media always at the same altitude as media is stacked. The positioning accuracy is about 2 mm.
  • a jogging system rectifies the supports as and when they arrive and to position them centered relative to the axis of the machine.
  • the addition of a blower at the end of the recipe 7 can be envisaged to simplify the recycling.
  • the jogging of the support head pushes the support towards squaring grids.
  • the rapid rise and fall of the recipe platform 7 must be accessible to the operator in "manual movements" mode.
