Abstract

The present invention relates to a feeder module for a converting machine, the feeder module comprises an upper feeder assembly, and a lower feeder assembly comprising a loading surface configured to receive a stack of sheets. The upper feeder assembly () comprises a gauge (), wherein a distance (d) between a vertical distal end of the gauge and the loading surface defines a clearance through which a lowermost positioned sheet in the stack can pass at a time. A feed roll assembly () located downstream of the gauge comprises an upper feed roller () and a lower feed roller (). The lower feeder assembly () and the lower feed roller are displaceable in the vertical direction.
