DEVICE FOR UNSTACKING MULTIMODAL POSTAL ITEMS

摘要

Device for unstacking multimodal postal items. A device for unstacking postal items comprises a feeder magazine (1) which moves the items (3) in a stack on edge in a certain direction (6) towards an unstacking head (5). Material sensors (28, 29) are provided to supply signals (S) indicating whether an ordinary item has a plastic envelope and/or comprises a metallic material. A control unit (13) forces the feeder magazine and the unstacking head to operate on the basis of the signals produced by the sensors, so that the items arrive facing the unstacking head in a slightly rearwardly inclined position.
