Abstract
Provided is an aligner capable of aligning a sheet during transport in a direction orthogonal to a transport direction. The aligner includes: a transport path; a linear-motion transport unit that generates a drive force in a transport direction along the transport path to a sheet on the transport path; a left-skew transport unit that is disposed in a left direction with respect to the transport direction of the linear-motion transport unit and generates a drive force in a left-oblique direction inclined in the left direction to the sheet on the transport path; and a right-skew transport unit that is disposed in a right direction with respect to the transport direction of the linear-motion transport unit and generates a drive force in a right-oblique direction inclined in the right direction to the sheet on the transport path.
