FIELD: machine engineering, possibly manufacture of shells of metallic sheets in different branches of machine engineering. SUBSTANCE: in order to start or to readjust machine for welding shells, module magazine 1 for stacked sheets includes adjustable supports 6,18 for guiding and holding stacked sheets. Said supports have holding surfaces 28 for catching up from downwards the lowest sheet. Supports 6,18 are mounted with possibility of motion in frame 4 that is detachably joined with apparatus for separating sheets. In order to simplify piecewise separation of sheets out of stack adjustable members 22 are additionally mounted in frame 4 and they feed air for separating sheets. Adjustable members 22 form together with frame 4 changeable module. In the result it is possible to keep once realized complex adjustment depending, except sheet format upon many other parameters and to use them again after completing maintenance operations or after using other module. Said adjustments may be stored due to mounting additional members for separating sheets on frame of module magazine but not on the machine itself. It allows to accurately adjust module magazine with use of sample sheets or test sheets, for example in testing bed of manufacturer or in other place where respective specialists are present. EFFECT: improved design of machine, enhanced efficiency of method. 11 cl, 3 dwg
