Abstract
Receiver units () for taking over objects () are moved past a take-over location (S, S) and include an abutment () which limits the position of the object () which is fed in the feed direction (F). At least one holding element and/or braking element () acts in a direct or indirect manner on the objects to be taken over, for realising a defined product position, in particular so that the object () does not bend up or rebound from the abutment (). In one variant, the holding element and/or braking element () brakes the object () by way of direct friction. In another variant, the object () to be taken over transmits its momentum onto an object () which is already held in the receiver unit () by way of the holding element and/or braking element, and is braked by way of this.
