ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus are provided for high speed manufacture of swatch bearing sheets wherein each sheet is directed through various operating stations via a single set of sheet engaging members. Individual sheets are removed from a stack of sheets at a feeding station. The sheets are aligned into a predetermined position for feeding to the sheet engaging members. A single set of sheet engaging members directs each sheet through an adhesive applying station where glue spots are placed on the sheets at predetermined locations. Each sheet is then advanced by the same set of sheet engaging members through one or more swatch applying stations where swatches are applied to the glue spots on the sheets. The sheets are then discharged from direction via the sheet engaging members at a disengaging station. The sheets are then fed through a pressing station to firmly adhere the swatches to the glue spots on the sheets.
