Abstract

An installation for handling the conveyance of a blank from a cutting machine to a stacking device has at least one cyclically operable conveyor programmed to convey the blank from the cutting machine to a position above the stacking device and to stop in this position before releasing the blank. A carriage supporting a gripping arm is connected to the conveyor for pulling the blank out of the cutting machine and for moving the pull-out blank to the stacking device with the conveyor.
