  • Publication number: 20250196335
    Abstract: Device and process for the automated handling of flexible laminar materials, in which are operated the picking of a flexible material (P) by means of a picking member (34) which engages a first portion of the flexible material, the handling of the picking member along a predefined trajectory for placing a second free portion (LP) of the flexible material on a deposition surface (2) of the flexible materials, in the deposition of each flexible material (P) a friction force develops between the flexible material and said surface, and the second portion of the flexible material (P) is suspended from the pick-up member and, following the deposition of said free portion of the flexible material at the deposition point (PD), the pick-up member exerts on the flexible material (P) a distension force (FD) of a lower magnitude than said friction force (FA) while the flexible material is positioned on said surface with a controlled release speed.
