Claim Text:
1. An arrangement for positioning sheet elements on respective backings to manufacture a multi-layer composite in a laminating unit, comprising: respective devices for conveying the elements in succession and separately for conveying the backings in succession in a longitudinal direction toward the laminating unit; a detector configured for detecting a position of an element laterally and pivoted with reference to the longitudinal direction and in the longitudinal direction of devices for correcting the position of the element, on the basis of the detected position and on the basis of a reference position, that comprise: a lateral-movement device configured for moving the element laterally, and a pivoting device configured for pivoting the element and a device configured for moving the element longitudinally, wherein the movement devices are configured to perform a lateral, an angle-of-pivoting, and a longitudinal, correction of the position of the element, wherein the pivoting device and the device for moving the element longitudinally comprise two independent heads configured for driving the element, and each incorporating a motor collaborating with a drive roller in contact with the element and operative for changing the position and orientation of the element, wherein the two independent heads are movable relative to one another in a direction transverse to the longitudinal direction.
