An apparatus for decelerating and shingling a stream of fast-moving, regularly spaced apart sheets is disclosed for use in connection with a sheet processing system. In a first portion, the sheet is subjected to a first snubbing apparatus which decelerates the sheets, thereby reducing the gap between each next subsequent sheet. In a second portion, the sheet is subjected to a second snubbing apparatus which further decelerates each sheet and allows each next subsequent sheet to overlap the previous sheet before being similarly decelerated. The speed of the sheet processing system may thereby be greatly increased.
