Abstract: A continous sheeting machine is formed with a sheet collection area for the accumulation and stacking of sheets into either ream or skid loads. Separate lift table and discharge means are provided for the respective ream collection or skid loading operations. Changeover between skid loading and ream collection is automatic. A ream collection system is stowed in a retracted position beneath the discharge area of the sheeting machine during skid loading. In the skid loading mode, two large scissor-lift tables shuttle concurrently respectively back and forth between the collection area and a discharge station, such that skid load collection is substantially continous. For ream collection, the skid load tables are removed from the collection area and a ream collection framework is shuttled out from beneath the sheeting machine so that a small, high-speed ream lift table is positioned in the collection area.
