Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2030922A2] The method involves measuring thickness of a flat object. A gap is adjusted between a belt guide roller (VS1) and a continuous conveyor (F3) such that the gap is smaller than or equal to the measured thickness, and difference between the measured thickness and the gap is smaller than or equal to a preset limit. The flat object is jammed between the belt guide roller and the continuous conveyor, and the jammed flat object is transported over a conveying path (FS1). An independent claim is also included for a device for transporting a flat object over a conveying path.
