Multilayer meltblown fibrous webs, as well as apparatus and methods of forming the webs. The webs are produced on a rotating collector that also moves parallel to its longitudinal axis. The webs are thus formed in a helical process, and the resulting tubular web is separated in a direction parallel to a helix angle. By separating the tubular web in a direction parallel to the helix angle, a flat m...

The method involves determining the height of the front and rear edges of the uppermost sheet of a stack, and moving a lifting unit (13,15) (provided at least for the rear edge of the sheets) in the vertical direction accordingly. If there is a large disparity (Y) between the height at the front edge and a reference value, the sheet stack (5) and the lifting unit are displaced simultaneously by a ...

When an auxiliary stack-carrier (22) is inserted, a divider (23) is moved between the rear upper-edge of the stack (9) to be divided, and a following sheet (4). The rear lower-edge of a new stack (23) is lifted up by the divider to the effective region of at least one rear sheet stop (15). An Independent claim is included for a sheet handling machine, especially a sheet-fed printing machine.; Bei...
