Abstract
A sheet stacker for stacking multiple sheet sizes from B5 to A3 allows easy conversion from stacking sheets without a container to stacking sheet with a container. An elevator mechanism is used to lift a four point frame of a main pallet when sheets are stacked directly onto the main pallet and a spider latch is used that can be rotated to allow the lift frame to pass through the main pallet and lift container pallets that are positioned within each container. Sheets can be stacked on a container pallet without using a container, if desired.
