METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR HANDLING, POSITIONING AND ASSEMBLING FABRIC PLIES Abstract of the Disclosure The disclosure relates to new methods and means for re- moving fabric plies one at a time from a stack, transporting the individual plies to a secondary location, precisely orienting and aligning the plies for a subsequent operation and, in some cases assembling one ply with another in preparation for a sewing oper- ation. In one of its advantageous forms, the equipment specifi- cally illustrated herein is especially useful for picking indi- vidual shirt cuff and liner plies from separate supply stacks, transporting them to a load station, and assembling the plies one on top of the other, in proper alignment and orientation for sewing. In a secondary mode, the equipment of the invention may be used to transport individual fabric plies, such as entire short sleeve shirt sections, to a sewing or other processing station. Incorporated in the comprehensive apparatus specifically disclosed are a plurality of inventive features in the form of significant sub-combinations capable of utilization in conjunction with other equipment and other processes.
