Rotary slotter sheet feeder

摘要

An apparatus is provided to pick up single sheets of semi rigid material from a stack and convey them to a further location. The pick up mechanism employs a primary carriage assembly supported for horizontal linear movement. A row of vertically movable suction devices mounted on the carriage lift the sheet adjacent a trailing edge. A secondary carriage including finger elements engages the raised sheet to push it across the stack into nip rollers.
