Device and method for producing packages of stacked materials

摘要

The device for producing packages of stacked materials consisting of a plurality of individual signatures comprises a first conveying unit, which defines a signature path. The first conveying unit moves the signatures along the signature path into a vertical position. The device also comprises a stacking table with a support surface for supporting the signatures, which are arriving with a vertical orientation. The stacking table comprises a second conveying unit, which moves the stacked signatures in a conveying direction of the stack. A control unit switches a tilting device between an active state, in which the tilting device tilts or compresses an upper area of the stacked signatures, and an inactive state, in which the tilting device exerts no effect on the stacked signatures.

1. A device for producing packages of stacked materials in the form of blocks comprising a plurality of individual signatures, the device comprising:
a first conveying unit, which defines a signature path, wherein the first conveying unit is adapted to move separated signatures along the signature path into a substantially vertical position; a stacking table having a support surface for supporting the signatures arriving with a substantially vertical orientation, wherein the stacking table comprises a second conveying unit, which serves to move a stack of signatures, stacked in the form of a block, in a conveying direction of the stack, a tilting device for tilting or compressing an upper area of the stacked signatures, wherein the tilting device is arranged above the support surface and is at a predetermined vertical distance from the support surface, wherein the tilting device comprises at least one pushrod; and a control unit, which serves to switch the tilting device between an active state, in which the tilting device tilts or compresses the upper area of the stacked signatures, and an inactive state, in which the tilting device exerts no effect on the stacked signatures.
