Abstract
A workpiece separating device for separating workpieces from support sheets includes a lifting unit and a positioning assembly supporting the support sheets with the workpieces adhered. The lifting unit includes a lifting cylinder and two pins raised and lowered by the lifting cylinder. The two pins are raised by the lifting cylinder to push the workpieces, thereby separating the workpieces from the support sheets in turn. A method for separating workpieces from support sheets using the present device is also provided.
