Sheet stacker module
A stacker module includes a lift table, a stacker configured to place sheets that are successively supplied thereto onto the top of a stack forming on the lift table, a controller configured to lower the lift table as the stack grows, a height-adjustable eject table, and an eject mechanism configured to transfer a completed stack from the lift table onto the eject table. The eject mechanism is height-adjustable for transferring stacks onto the eject table in different height positions of the lift table.
SHEET BUNDLE TRANSPORT APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD OF SHEET BUNDLE TRANSPORT APPARATUS
Provided is the sheet bundle transport apparatus including: an abutment unit that performs switching between an abutment state at a predetermined position and a non-abutment state; first and second press units that press the sheet bundle against first and second transport units; a press switching unit that performs switching between a first press state where the first and second press units press the sheet bundle in a predetermined region located upstream from the predetermined position in the transport direction and a second press state where the first press unit does not press the sheet bundle in the predetermined region; and a control unit that controls the abutment unit and the press switching unit to switch the non-abutment state to the abutment state and switch the first press state to the second press state so as to change an angle relative to the width direction of a predetermined sheet bundle.
