Abstract

See full text

A method for automatic processing of sheet material, e.g. bank notes, wherein the bank notes are singled, transferred to a transport system, tested, and stacked in units of a predetermined piece number in so-called stackers by predetermined categories in accordance with the testing. The transfer of bank note to the transport system is interrupted as soon as the sensor unit ascertains that the predetermined piece number of a category is reached in a stacker. The bank notes of the same category already singled at this time are stored temporarily in the sorting plant until the stacker has processed the deposited predetermined piece number. The time for the interruption of singling is such that the first bank note singled again reaches the stacker only when the latter is ready for service again
