Abstract
An apparatus and a method for singling value documents involve a feeding device adapted to feed a respectively uppermost value document of a stack of value documents to a picking device adapted to pick the value document from the stack. A conveying device is adapted to receive the stack and to convey it relative to the feeding device. A distance sensor is adapted to detect at least one distance of the respectively uppermost value document of the stack received by the conveying device relative to the feeding device and generate at least one corresponding distance sensor signal. A control device is adapted to control the conveying of the stack relative to the feeding device and the location of the feeding device relative to the stack based on the distance sensor signal.
