Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1364900A1] The method of feeding flat printed products (6) uses a vertical feeder with multiple grippers (3) to hold the products and remove them in succession from a horizontal conveyor. The grippers can be angularly adjusted relative to the feeder path (U) to allow the lower gripper jaw (4) to fit under the leading edge of a product and scoop it upwardly for full gripping.
