<p>Apparatus for separating a first flexible lamina of predetermined thickness from a second lamina to which the first lamina is adhered along an edge (e.g., a pouch for use in an identification card) comprises: a channel having a thickness not substantially greater than the combined thickness of the laminae; an impeller for impelling the laminae together through the channel and out of the outlet end thereof; a cutter disposed adjacent the outlet of the channel so as to contact the edge at which the two laminae are adhered adjacent the line of adhesion between the laminae, thus separating the laminae; and a wedge device disposed adjacent the cutter and arranged so that as the first and second laminae are separated by the cutter and are impelled past the wedge device, the two laminae pass on opposed sides of the wedge device, thereby increasing the separation between the laminae.</p> |
