EXTRACTION DEVICE FOR A MACHINE FOR SORTING FLAT OBJECTS, AND METHOD FOR EXTRACTING FLAT OBJECTS

摘要

The invention relates to a device (2) for extracting flat objects (5), including: a first detection means (11) for detecting the transition between object types; at least first and second specialized extraction programs and a default extraction program, capable of maintaining a first nominal space, a second nominal space, and a default nominal space between two consecutive flat objects (5), respectively; a monitoring/control unit arranged to automatically execute said default extraction program in response to the detection of said transition, to count said flat objects (5) subsequent to said transition, and, in response to reaching a predetermined counting threshold, to execute, for said subsequent flat objects (5) and until the next transition detection, said corresponding first or second specialized extraction program. The invention also relates to a method for extracting flat objects (5) using said extraction device (2).
