A sheet turning apparatus includes first and second sheet conveyors configured to convey a sheet along respective sheet paths. The sheet is conveyed by the first sheet conveyor in a first disposition relative to an orientation of the first sheet conveyor. Also included is a chamber configured to receive the sheet from the first sheet conveyor. The chamber has an orientation different than the orientation of the first sheet conveyor or an orientation of the second sheet conveyor. The sheet is discharged from the chamber to the second sheet conveyor in a second disposition relative to the orientation of the second sheet conveyor. The second disposition is reversed from the first disposition. Also provided is a method for turning a sheet.

AIR DELIVERY DEVICE FOR PRINTING AND COATING APPLICATIONS
An air delivery device and printing or coating machinery using the same. In one configuration, the air delivery device is an air knife (100) that cooperates with a printing device such as a printing press, coating machine or the like. In a particular configuration, the air knife is situated adjacent a set of cylinders (56) in the printing device such that upon a sheet or related piece of printed substrate being put in an air flowpath created by the air knife, one or more operations can be performed on the still wet printed or coated sheet to minimize the chance of contact of the wet sheet surface with sheet delivery or related components. Examples of such operations may include turning, bending or folding the sheet, as well as drying the ink or coating placed on the sheet by the printing machinery.
