Abstract (en)
A sheet set feeder is provided for feeding individualized sheet sets from a stack (16) of sheet sets wherein each set is offset-jogged with respect to adjacent sets. A gap (46) is created between the topmost set (16a) and the adjacent set in the stack, and a separator member (24) moves into the gap (46) to engage the topmost set. The separator member (24) is then moved along an edge of the topmost (16a) set to a position midway between the opposed lateral edges of the stack and then advanced in a feed out direction to push out the separated topmost set. The set feeder allows to separate the sets from the top of the stack (16). <IMAGE>
