Abstract (en)

[origin: DE102004015453B3] The method involves separating a postal stream into machine-compatible large letters (1) and other postal items, placing the large letters at the sorting point (10) onto a conveyor carrying them for further processing with the stamps facing up and with the adjacent edge parallel to the address lines parallel to a reference edge of the conveyor, canceling the stamps in a canceling machine (4) and transporting the large letters away rotated (8) through 90 degrees. An independent claim is also included for a device for processing large letters with stamps.
