Abstract (en)

A method of forming and picking up packs (2) off a stack (3) of sheets (4) superimposed in a first direction (5), whereby the packs (2), each defined by a first number (n) of sheets (4), are formed and picked up successively to leave on a supporting pallet (6) a last group (9) of sheets (4) defined by a second number (m) of sheets (4) smaller than the first number (n), and which is removed off the pallet (6) and transferred onto a new stack (3) in a second direction (45) perpendicular to the first direction (5), while the new stack (3) is retained at a top edge (44) crosswise to and at the rear in the second direction (45). <IMAGE>
