Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0908406A1] A sheet handling system has individual grips for each sheet, or folded sheet, moving along a guide track. Each grip has a pair of gripping jaws to pick up single items. A switching point (61) enables selected grips to be diverted into a reject track (107). These comprise grips holding faulty sheets, misaligned sheets, multiple sheets, no sheets etc. The remaining grips are moved along the main track (106) to the next process station, with the missing gaps closed up.
