Embodiment Construction

[0022] A lifting means 9 of a singling device 10 is mounted on a guide means 11 for longitudinal movement thereon. It can be reciprocated between a first and a second tendering position 12 and 13 in the longitudinal direction 14. Underneath it on the lifting means 9 there are suction means 15, with which the lifting means 9 can lift sheet metal panels 16 from the sheet metal panel stacks 17 and 18 to the two tendering positions 12 and 13. The sheet metal panel stacks 17 and 18 are held on transport carriages 19 and 20, which may be moved into the singling device 10 in the transverse direction and constitute transverse conveying means.

[0023] When a sheet metal panel stack 17 or 18 has been dealt with so that one of the transport carriages 19 or 20 is free, the respective transport carriage 19 or 20 is moved out of the singling device 10, reloaded with sheet metal panels 16 and returned to the respective tendering position 12 or 13. The lifting means 9 alternatively handles sheet meta...

Abstract

A singling device and a singling method for singling sheet metal panels comprises two tendering positions arranged one after the other in the longitudinal direction to offer a respective sheet metal panel stack, said two tendering positions being provided with a lifting means able to be reciprocated in the longitudinal direction and for feeding the sheet metal panels in the longitudinal direction to a working site. A longitudinal conveying means is arranged between the two tendering positions, which is able to be moved in the longitudinal direction, and which terminates in a first longitudinal position moved toward the working site on the one hand in the vicinity of the first tendering position remote from the working site and on the one hand bridges over the second tendering position so that the lifting means feeds the sheet metal panels lifted from the first sheet metal panel stack onto the longitudinal conveying means which in a second longitudinal position moved away from the working site frees the second tendering position.

Description

[0001] The invention relates to a singling device for singling sheet metal panels comprising two tendering positions arranged one after the other in the longitudinal direction to offer a respective sheet metal panel stack, said two tendering positions being provided with a lifting means able to be reciprocated in the longitudinal direction for lifting individual sheet metal panels and for feeding the sheet metal panels in the longitudinal direction to a working site. The invention also relates to-a method for singling.[0002] 1. The Prior Art[0003] In the case of a singling device forming part of the prior art the lifting means feeds the sheet metal panels firstly from the first stack and then from the second stack to the same position, which is for example provided in the vicinity of a working site for the further processing of the sheet metal panels. In this respect for instance the first tendering position is further removed from this position than the second tendering position. W...
