摘要

Handling system in the extension arm of sheet-processing machines, especially printing machines, for slowing down and placing sheets (5) on a stack comprises at least one suction gripper (4) having a suction surface loaded with suction air for picking up each sheet in the region of its rear edge, and at least one mechanical gripping device with interacting upper and lower clamping elements (2, 3) provided with clamping surfaces for fixing the sheet edge. Independent claims are also included for processes for slowing down and placing sheets in the extension arm of sheet-processing machines.
