An apparatus separates printed products that have been assembled into a stack. The apparatus includes a conveyor for transporting the stack, which is connected to an advanceable element, which implements separation of the printed products in the stack. The printed products in a receiving support are transferred into a skewed position, which leads to a reduction of the load on the printed products that are to be de-stacked. A retainer, which is part of the receiving support, and a support are set with a clearance with respect to the predefined printed product thickness.
A method operates a facility, which serves for the continuous production of multiple gang runs for forming individual signatures or signature packs from which type-specific print products are made in a downstream print further processing machine. An endless web is the basis for the formation of these multiple gang runs. The endless web, in the non-folded state, is imparted complementary handling by facility-internal means according to the following criteria: i) in a 2-gang run, the individual signatures or the folded signature packs are only deflected in a second longitudinal air folding station disposed downstream of the first longitudinal air folding station; and ii) in a 3 or 4-gang run, the individual signatures or the folded signature packs are additionally folded in a second longitudinal air folding station disposed downstream of the first longitudinal air folding station.
An apparatus for producing an adhesive-bound printed product comprises an endlessly circulating transport system where a transport clamp holds a clamped-in printed product with the aid of a first adjusting mechanism that generates a first movement component while the printed product circulates through the apparatus. To favorably influence an opening and/or closing movement depending on the printed product), the apparatus comprises a second adjusting mechanism to be selectively activated and to generate in an activated position a second movement component that acts upon a swivel arm. The second movement component is oriented counter to an upward movement of the control arm induced by the first movement component. The counter-oriented movement components are compensated via a second mechanical spring which supports the swivel arm relative to the control arm.
An apparatus for producing printed products such as books, magazines, brochures, catalogues or the like comprises several connected devices for the processing of printed sheets. The printed sheets are admitted with blast air via at least one air supply in order to change or maintain their position. At least two of the connected devices are respectively provided with at least one blower for generating blast air. The blast air can be used in the respective device. The blowers are connected to a control unit of the apparatus so that the blast air generated by the blowers can be controlled as needed.

Clamp opening system for a machine for producing adhesively bonded printed products
A machine produces an adhesively bonded book block. The machine has a clamp chain equipped with spaced apart binder clamps, which are connected to a clamp opening system. The clamp opening system has a movable internal aid for a binder clamp and an external aid, which are operably connected together. The aids open clamping jaws of the binder clamp. At a loading location for the book block, the external aid is operated by a drive to execute pressing operation on the movable internal aid. The moveable internal aid achieves an opening of the clamping jaws depending on a thickness of the book block. A recoil force is established with the drive-related pressing operation, which is converted as a pressing force onto the book block in a running cycle.
A method for bringing together a wrapper and a plurality of inserts can be used to form an advertising means compilation. In a region of a compilation section, the wrapper and the inserts are deposited on one another individually and in succession on a conveying element which is moved in a direction of transport. A leading edge of the wrapper is deposited offset relative to leading edges of the inserts so as to form an excess length of the wrapper. The inserts are deposited on one another, forming a stack, such that the leading edges of the inserts form a common fold edge. The excess length of the wrapper, which lies flat on the conveying element or on the stack of inserts, is folded around the fold edge and, at least in part, around the stack of inserts so as to form the advertising means compilation.
