Abstract: A lifting surface, a deposit surface and a transfer assembly is equipped with electromagnets and counter-magnets, which when they are activated permit the grasping of one or more thicknesses of a material supplied upon the surface. The assembly transfers the grasped pieces to the surface and the counter-magnets are recuperated at the same time as the electromagnets, to their initial position.
