ABSTRACT:
A method for producing bundles of tags from a stack of die cut sheets and an apparatus for stripping bundles of tags from a stack of die cut sheets and tying the bundles. The disclosed method includes clamping portions of a stack of die cut sheets on opposite sides of a common cut line adjacent the cut line and rotating the portions about the common cut line with respect to each other about an axis parallel to the cut line. The method causes the portions to separate sequentially for individual sheets in order to substantially reduce the stripping force required. The method may further include imparting a force in a direction transverse the sheets during the rotating to further enhance the sequential separation of the sheet portions. An apparatus is disclosed including gravity feed means for feeding stacks of sheets into a dual stripping assembly having alternatingly-actuated stripping members. The disclosed apparatus further includes a tying assembly including a pushing member for pushing stripped tag bundles into a wire segment and a rotatable twisting member for snaring and twisting the ends of the wire segments which face the twisting member.
