Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2060519A2] The assembly to form a flow (5) of partially overlaid printed sheets (4), especially folded sheets, has a feed wheel (1) after the folder to lay them in sequence on a conveyor belt (2). At least one electronic camera (6) checks the alignment of the sheets on the conveyor, with images taken at time intervals. The image data are passed to an image processing unit (9) with a control (10) to adjust the sheet laying according to at least one parameter if there is a deviation from nominal conditions. The control sets the conveyor and wheel speeds to maintain a constant sheet overlay gap (a).
