<p>A delivery system comprises a frame, and a plurality of hoppers (2008) attachable to the frame in a vertically spaced apart arrangement. The hoppers (2008) are each configured to hold a plurality of sheet-like materials. At least one upper belt (2016) is movably coupled to the frame, with the belt (2016) being configured to move the sheet-like materials downward from the hoppers. At least one contact roller (2018) is disposed below each hopper (2008), and at least one suction apparatus (2030) that is associated with each hopper (2030). A moving system (2042) is configured to move the suction apparatus (2030) toward and away from the hopper (2008) to grasp and remove one of the sheet-like materials from the hopper (2008), and to move the removed sheet-like material downward until grabbed by the contact roller (2018).</p> |
