All rolls () in the system are moved at least once synchronously having the indexing conveyor car () driven into its uppermost position (second elevation level), and at least one roll () is moved at one station () having the indexing conveyor car () driven into a vertical position (elevation level) situated at any level between the uppermost and the lowermost elevation level.
