    • A method for storing a series of flexible documents ( . . . , B(n−1), B(n), B(n+1), . . . ) in a system (100), each flexible document ( . . . , B(n−1), B(n), B(n+1), . . . ) having a front side and a rear side and the method comprising activating at least a sensor group (30), at least one external sensor unit (40) and an internal sensor unit (140) arranged at the entrance of system (100), in proximity of a storing and issuing module (10) and inside the storing and issuing module (10), respectively, for sensing each flexible document ( . . . , B(n−1), B(n), B(n+1), . . . ) of the series, while it is transported on a conveyor belt (20) into a storing and issuing module (10), and providing corresponding dimension information and position information with respect to a longitudinal symmetry axis (y-y) to a central processing unit (50) or a processor (150); B. when a flexible document B(n) is sensed by the internal sensor unit (140) inside the storing and issuing module (10), and C. if a next flexible document B(n+1) transported on conveyor belt (20) is sensed and corresponding position information for the next flexible document B(n+1) is provided to the central processing unit (50) and forwarded to processor (150) before the internal sensor unit (140) stops sensing the flexible document B(n), and also if the next flexible document B(n+1) is within a predetermined storage distance (dST) from the storing and issuing module (10), D. based on dimension information and the last obtained position information on the flexible document B(n), dimension information and the last obtained position information on the next flexible document B(n+1) and known design parameters of the system, determining the actual minimum distance (dpred), along an axis (yMIN-yMIN) parallel to longitudinal symmetry axis (y-y), that would be left on a transport tape (170) inside the storing and issuing module (10), between the rear side of flexible document B(n) and the front side of the next flexible document B(n+1) of the series, if transport tape (170) moved at linear speed (vt(t)) according to a conventional pattern having a constant speed value (V) at regime operational conditions, E. comparing the actual minimum distance (dpred) calculated at step D with a desired minimum distance dd, and F. if the actual minimum distance (dpred) is different from the desired minimum distance dd, adjusting, by sending corresponding signals through processor (50), linear speed (vt(t)) of transport tape (170) with respect to the conventional pattern, between a time instant tj(n) at which flexible document B(n) is engaged with transport tape 170 and a time instant tj(n+1) at which the flexible document B(n+1) is engaged with transport tape (170) inside the storing and issuing module (10), such that: the desired minimum distance dd along the axis (yMIN-yMIN) parallel to the longitudinal symmetry axis (y-y) is left on transport tape (170) between the rear side of the flexible document B(n) and the front side of the next flexible document B(n+1), and when, at tj(n+1), the next document B(n+1) is engaged with transport tape (170), the linear speed value of transport tape (170) is the constant speed value (V) of the conventional pattern of transport tape linear speed (vt(t)) at regime operational conditions.
