The present invention relates to a device for treating substrates which device is modular and versatile in use. The device for treating substrates comprises a feeder and one or more first sub-structure modules which each comprise a pressure cylinder with devices for fixing a lift and a sheet-conveying device and one or more second sub-structure modules which respectively have a transport cylinder with openings formed on the cover surface thereof, and having devices for fixing a lift and a sheet conveying device. All of the first or second sub-structure modules have the same intersection point for connecting the sub-structure modules on one of the inlet and the exit side and they all can be equipped with an attachment module.

There is provided a recording system that can suppress a reduction in throughput when post-processing is performed in a post-processing apparatus.

A paper sorting device includes: a stacking conveyor that receives continuously fed cut sheets to stack the cut sheets by sorting unit and that continuously conveys stacked cut sheets downstream on a unit-by-unit basis; and a stacker section arranged downstream of the stacking conveyor, capable of continuously stacking the stacked cut sheets conveyed from the stacking conveyor, at different positions on a placement surface.

The present invention relates to a conveyor system (30) for transporting blanks (2) in a converting machine (1). The conveyor system comprises an endless first conveyor belt (32a) and a support structure (38). The support structure (38) comprising a plurality of rollers (56), each roller being attached to a roller frame (54) and arranged in a line, the roller frames being connected to each other by a connection mechanism (62). The connection mechanism (62) is extendable and retractable in the direction of transportation, such that a contact length (Lc) of the first conveyor belt is modified and all rollers remain in contact with the first conveyor belt.

The present invention relates to a separator device (22) for a folder-gluer machine, the separator device being configured to divide a shingled stream of folding boxes into separate batches, the separator device comprising a vertically movable separator head and at least one upper evacuation conveyor belt.

A lower conveyor system (30) has a lower evacuation conveyor belt, such that the folding boxes are pinched between and transported by the upper evacuation conveyor belt and the lower second conveyor belt in unison.

The shingling device comprises: a shingling conveyor, adapted to receive a stream of sheets aligned with one another and not overlapping; a braking device, positioned above the shingling conveyor and configured to slow down the sheets arriving to the shingling conveyor, and to partially overlap the incoming sheets in shingling fashion. The braking device comprises: a first set of braking wheels aligned with one another along a first rotation axis orthogonal to a feed direction of the sheets to the shingling conveyor; and a second set of braking wheels aligned with one another along a second rotation axis orthogonal to the feed direction of the sheets to the shingling conveyor.
