摘要:
A device for transporting a flat product includes a rotating transport cylinder and a continuous stripper belt. The rotating transport cylinder defines an axis of rotation and is configured to guide the flat product at a circumference of the cylinder over a first angle of rotation of the cylinder. The continuous stripper belt is disposed between the flat product and the axis of rotation over a second angle of rotation of the cylinder and is configured to guide the flat product away from the cylinder so as to strip the flat product from the cylinder. The stripper belt follows a continuous path that does not circumscribe the axis of rotation. In addition, a method for transporting a flat product includes guiding the flat product at a circumference of a rotating transport cylinder defining an axis of rotation over a first angle of rotation of the cylinder and stripping the flat product from the transport cylinder using a continuous stripper belt that follows a continuous path not circumscribing the axis of rotation.
