摘要

A means for slowing cut sheets in seriatum flow by nipping the trailing edge of the sheets as they leave a high-speed conveyor system is provided whereby the sheets pass to a stacking pile at a slow speed. The nipping means is disclosed in several embodiments including a brush carrying roll (24) an oscillating roll on a lever arm and an air jet means. Ream removal means (40) are also provided to remove reams (38) of paper from the bottom of the stacking pile (36).
