Abstract

To guarantee a permanent continuous delivery of sheets of material (12), packaging material, on packaging machines, sheet stocks (14) are formed, and these guarantee that the sheet of material 12 can be stopped temporarily in a region preceding them, without conveyance being interrupted in the region where it is conveyed further. During this time, the sheet of material (12) is drawn off from the sheet stock (14). A supply rocker (10) to form the sheet stock (14) is designed such that, in an initial position, the sheet of material (12) is free of deflections or loops.
