(54)	Device and method for moving paper sheets impregnated and/or coated with polymeric resin, in particular for floor panelling or surfacing of furniture, walls, etc.

(57) A device (1) for moving paper sheets impregnated and/or coated with polymeric resin, in particular for floor panelling or surfacing of furniture, walls, etc., comprises a system (3) for feeding a series of sheets (2) in sequence, a main motor (4) which drives the feed system, a brake (5) to slow the speed of the sheets, and a rotating pusher member (6) cyclically cooperating with each of the sheets (2) to push the sheets against the brake; the pusher member (6) is driven by an auxiliary motor (24), independent of the main motor (4); a control unit (27) controls the operation of the auxiliary motor (24) and thus in particular the speed of rotation of the pusher member (6) on the basis of the instantaneous position and speed of each sheet detected by a position sensor (25) and by a speed sensor (26) both arranged upstream of the pusher member (6).
