ABSTRACT:
A method and an apparatus for the sequential separation of individual members from a generally, axially aligned stack of members, in which the apparatus has a stack supporting structure along with a first engaging means that holds at least the penultimate individual member of the stack. A second engaging means contacts and engages the first individual member at the end of the stack adjacent the first engaging means. The second engaging means is movable between a position proximate and distal the first engaging means. The individual member, as held by the second engaging means, is axially separated from said stack of individual members and released.
