ABSTRACT:
A device and method for interconnecting sections of fan-folded sheets to form a composite stack of a predetermined size. A base having an upper planer surface is provided for supporting a trailing transverse edge of the last sheet of a first section in abutting edge to edge relationship with the leading transverse edge of the first sheet of a succeeding section. Guide pins are located on the upper surface to assist in the positioning of the sheets. Splicing tape containing a centrally located row of longitudinally-extending perforations is then manually or automatically applied to regions of the sheets adjoining the abutting edges, with the perforations centrally located in a region between the abutting edges. One embodiment of the device of the present invention provides a mechanism for perforating the tape before it is applied to the adjoining edges. The invention also provides a mechanism for subjecting the individual sheets of a composite stack to a predetermined tension force and a mechanism for applying or printing identifying indicia to one side of the sheets forming the stack.
