Abstract

A mobile feeder is presented for separating flat products, in particular folded sheets, flat sheets, cards, inserts and the like, for printed-product processing machines, such as in particular gatherer stitchers, collating machines or inserting machines. The feeder can be positioned variously, as required, in terms of its position in relation to a transport device.
