Abstract
A sheet processing machine utilizes chain conveyors, each of which are provided with a plurality of chain gripper devices, to convey sheets. As each sheet is conveyed, it is cut by a transverse cutting device and is inspected. Each cut and inspected sheet may then be separated into several partial sheets which are then conveyed independently of each other to selectable stacks in a sheet delivery system.
