Device and method for separating value documents, in particular banknotes, and value document processing system

Abstract

An apparatus and a corresponding method for singling value documents includes: an input device which is devised for receiving a stack of value documents, a transport device which is devised for drawing a value document from a stack of value documents located in the input device, and a transport element, which is devised to influence the drawing of the value document from the stack of value documents. At least one sensor is provided which is devised to capture a size of the stack located in the input device, in particular a height of the stack and/or a fill level of the input device, and a density of the stack. A control device is devised to control the transport device and/or the transport element based on the captured size of the stack and/or the captured density of the stack.
