Abstract

Beim Zusammentragen wird aus mehreren Kollektionen gleicher Falzbogen jeweils ein einzelner Falzbogen entnommen, wobei die verschiedenen vereinzelten Falzbogen einem Sammelförderer zur Stapelbildung zugeführt werden. Die Druckbogen müssen dabei zuverlässig und produktschonend vereinzelt werden.When assembling a single folded sheet is taken from several collections of the same folded sheet, the various individual folded sheets are fed to a collection conveyor for stacking. The printed sheets must be separated reliably and gentle on the product.

Die Erfindung sieht vor, dass die Druckbogen (3) einer Kollektion als Stapel (4) bereitgestellt werden, wobei der Stapel (4) im Wesentlichen von einem Luftpolster (LP) getragen wird, dass der unterste Druckbogen (3) zumindest bereichsweise mit einem Trennwerkzeug (30) vom Stapel (4) abgehoben wird, dass sich das Luftpolster (LP) zwischen dem untersten Druckbogen (3) und dem Reststapel (4) ausbildet, und dass der Druckbogen (3) zum Sammelförderer (10) gefördert wird.The invention provides that the printed sheets (3) of a collection are provided as a stack (4), wherein the stack (4) is essentially supported by an air cushion (LP), that the lowest printed sheet (3) at least partially with a separating tool (30) is lifted from the stack (4) that the air cushion (LP) between the lowermost sheet (3) and the remaining stack (4) is formed, and that the sheet (3) is conveyed to the accumulation conveyor (10).

Der abgehobene Druckbogen ist durch das Luftpolster vollständig vom Stapel getrennt, sodass der Druckbogen absolut reibungsfrei zum darüber liegenden Stapel 4 austransportiert wird.

Figure imgaf001
The lifted sheet is completely separated from the stack by the air cushion, so that the sheet is transported without any friction to the overlying stack 4.
