Method and device for conveying material strip portions cut from a material strip

A method for conveying strip portions cut by a cutting device from a material strip in the transverse direction of the material strip, which strip portions are subsequently laid in a staggered, overlapping stack on a stacker, comprising the steps of:

• (i) conveying with a first conveyor disposed downstream from the cutting device the material strip for cutting and the cut strip portion at a first conveying speed V.sub.1, wherein V.sub.1 is equal to a supply conveying speed V.sub.0 of the material strip to the cutting device plus from 0% to 5% V.sub.0 ;
• and
• (ii) conveying with a second conveyor the cut strip portion at a second conveying speed V.sub.2 which is greater than the first conveying speed V.sub.1
• wherein the second conveyor is disposed downstream from the first conveyor and upstream from the stacker.

A conveying device for transporting strip portions cut from a material strip in the transverse direction of the material strip, which strip portions are then laid in a staggered, overlapping stack onto a stacker, comprising:

• (i) a cutting device;
• (ii) a first conveyor disposed downstream from the cutting device which transports the material strip during cutting and the cut strip portions at a first conveying speed V.sub.1, wherein V.sub.1 is equal to a supply speed V.sub.0 of the material strip to the cutting device plus from 0% to 5% V.sub.0 ;
• and
• (iii) second conveyor means disposed downstream from the first conveyor and preceding the stacker for transporting the cut strip portions, after having been cut free of the material strip, at a second conveying speed V.sub.2 which is greater than the first conveying speed V.sub.1.

A method for cutting and conveying strip portions cut by a cutting device from a material strip in the transverse direction of the material strip, which strip portions are subsequently laid in a staggered, overlapping stack on a stacker, comprising:

• (i) cutting a strip portion from the material strip with the cutting device;
• (ii) conveying with a first conveyor disposed downstream from the cutting device the material strip for cutting and the cut strip portion at a first conveying speed V.sub.1, wherein V.sub.1 is equal to a supply conveying speed V.sub.0 of the material strip to the cutting device plus from 0% to 5% V.sub.0 ;
• and
• (iii) conveying with a second conveyor the cut strip portion, after having been cut free of the material strip, at a second conveying speed V.sub.2 which is greater than the first conveying speed V.sub.1
• wherein the second conveyor is disposed downstream from the first conveyor and upstream from the stacker.
