Abstract:
Method for separating scrap cuttings from a panel that was punched or cut from a sheet of material, in whicha sheet of material, that is lying on a platen of a machining device and that was punched or cut, is drawn to a first attraction surface of a transport device via attractive force, the transport device is moved toward a second attraction surface of a cutting separator until the sheet of material is lying on the second attraction surface; and the attractive force exerted on the second attraction surface is greater in the area of the scrap cuttings than the attractive force exerted by the first attraction surface and smaller in the area of the panel than the attractive force exerted by the first attraction surface, the transport device is moved to a panel stacking device with the panel, and the scrap cuttings remain on the cutting separator, and the attractive force exerted by the first attraction surface is switched off, causing the panel to be deposited in the panel stacking device.
