1. A separating device for profiles, said separating device comprising:
transfer devices between supporting surfaces of successive transverse conveyors;
said transfer devices each having receptacles configured to receive a plurality of said profiles;
said receptacles being displaceable in rotary steps of a shaft between a pick-up position and a handover position, and each forming a driver surface that in the pick-up position engages under only one, of said profiles;
wherein stop cams are associated with the receptacles;
wherein stop points on a contour of the stop cams each define a respective angle of rotation of the stop cams and a corresponding distance from a bearing surface of at least one transverse conveyor;
wherein a rear boundary edge of the bearing surface, which is determined by the stop points as a function of a cross-sectional shape and size of the profiles, is at a distance from the shaft that is equal to or greater than a distance from the shaft to an outer end of the driver surface; and
wherein the transverse conveyors are controlled as a function of stopping of the profiles at an associated stop cam rotated into a rotational position for the cross-sectional shape and size of the profiles to be separated.
