Abstract

A method and a device for combining an auxiliary stack and a main stack include a rake carrying the auxiliary stack and being abruptly movable out of a stack area to prevent sheets that contact the rake from being entrained and to preserve the structure of the stack. A sheet-fed printing press or sheet punching machine having the device is also provided.
