Abstract

A device for the lateral separation of paper webs, including: a paper introduction region with at least one driven web supply roller; a buffer region, in which the web is prepared for discontinuous forward motion; a cutting device; and a paper lead-off region with discontinuous web forward motion; the device further including at least a first tube group having two tubes which may be moved relative to at least a third tube of the tube group, perpendicular to the web. The tube group (120; 150) is arranged intermediate the paper introduction region having merger region tubes and a discontinuously driven paper web roller in order to form a turning web loop of varying length. The length as determined by the separation between the tubes of the tube group is regulated by a controller, in connection with the driven web supply roller and the discontinuous web forward motion.
