Abstract

Die Erfindung geht aus von einem Verfahren zum Vereinzeln von Gegenständen (4) aus einem Stapel (6) in einen Gegenstandsstrom (8), bei dem die Gegenstände (4) mit einem Abzugsmittel (14) vom Stapel (6) abgezogen und einander überlappende Gegenstände (4) mit einem Trennmittel (20) voneinander getrennt werden.
Zum Erreichen einer zuverlässigen Vereinzelung mit einer geringen Doppelabzugsrate wird vorgeschlagen, dass beidseitig des abgezogenen Gegenstands (4) jeweils mehrere Zugmittel (Z1 - Z'12) des Trennmittels (20) am Gegenstand (4) angreifen und mit unterschiedlicher Vortriebsgeschwindigkeit (v1 - v'12) in Transportrichtung (12) betrieben werden.
