Tech/Engineering - Printing & Publishing / Schuppenanleger
German term or phrase: Abstreifern
Der Schuppenanleger übergibt geschuppt liegende Bogen an das folgende Aggregat. Ein Saugkopf (auch Saugschloss oder auch Bogentrenner) trennt den Bogen an dessen Ende vom Papierstapel. Danach heben Hubsauger das Bogenende an, unterstützt von Blasluft und ***Abstreifern***. Getaktete Blasluft wird nun zwischen die Bogen geblasen und bringt den gesamten obersten Bogen zum Schweben.
