摘要 |
The invention relates to a apparatus for producing large stitched products, comprising a multiple-needle stitching unit (1), a storage device for layers of the product to be stitched which is connected upstream of the multiple-needle stitching unit (1), and a processing station (3), which is connected downstream of the multiple-needle stitching unit (1), for stitched products (4), wherein the multiple-needle stitching unit (1) has a large number of stitching elements and a guide device (11) for the products (4) to be stitched, which guide device (11) is arranged in the region of the stitching elements and can be moved in relation to the stitching elements in a direction substantially perpendicular to the conveying direction of the stitched products (4). In order to further develop an apparatus or a method of this generic type in such a way that the finished stitched products run into the processing station substantially without or with at least a very slight deviation from the conveying direction or between the stitching elements in the case of stitching counter to the conveying direction, provision is made for a device (22) for compensating for an angular offset of the stitched products (4) between an output of the guide device (11) and an input (24) of the processing station (3) to be arranged between the multiple-needle stitching unit (1) and the processing station (3).
