ABSTRACT:
A conveyor (10) has a self-contained main conveyor line (12), a number of feed lines (14, 14') in the form of buffer lines and a return line (16, 16'). Each feed line (14, 14') is associated to a processing station (26, 26'). The feed lines (14, 14') are connected to the main conveyor line (12) by means of controlled switches (28) so that, viewed in the conveyor direction (F), any of the clamps (20) can be delivered to any desired processing station (26). This gives the device great flexibility and decouples the processing stations from the pickup of the pressroom products at the pickup station (24).
