ABSTRACT:
An automated system for selectively providing a limp material segment, e.g., fabric, to a joining apparatus includes at least one picker actuation mechanism ("PAM") for manipulating and transporting the segment. The PAM has an end effector for picking up the segment and an independently operable clamp for holding the segment while the PAM itself is transported between work stations.
