Description

The invention relates to a method and a web printing machine for producing a printed product according to the preamble of claims 1 and 7, respectively.

In the EP 1 849 602 B1 a web printing machine with at least one printing tower with several offset printing units arranged one above the other is disclosed. In a triple-wide version of the offset printing unit, a forme cylinder carries 2 × 6 broadsheet pages or 4 × 6 horizontal tabloid pages in the first operating mode and, in a second operating mode, two printing plates arranged next to one another with a total of 3 × 8 vertical tabloid pages. The web-fed printing press comprises a folding structure with a former level having three formers and a folding structure with a former level having four narrower formers.

In the WO 2005/105445 A1 A triple-width web printing machine with printing towers is disclosed, with six print pages of a first format being printable in a first operating mode, six print pages of a smaller format in another operating mode and four printing pages of a larger format side by side on a web in a further operating mode. In one operating situation, based on the nominal format, two three-page-wide printing plates are provided on the triple-width forme cylinder.

Through the DE 42 04 254 A1 a device for longitudinally folding several webs of the same width is known, in a first mode of operation one web being guided through a longitudinal cutting device into two 1/2-wide partial webs and these over two adjacent funnels of a former level and in a second operating mode the web in three 1/3 -wide partial webs are cut and guided over three funnels. For the second mode of operation, the two formers of the former level are moved outwards in opposite directions in order to pick up the two outer of the three partial webs, while the middle of the three partial webs is guided over an additional former provided on another level.

The DE 10 2008 054 367 A1 relates to a former arrangement of a printing machine with at least two longitudinal cutting devices and two formers, which can each be moved separately transversely to the direction of web travel. While maintaining the web width, depending on the configuration, a different number of printed pages, e.g. B. in one configuration four broadsheet or tabloid pages to be printed next to each other on the web in a different configuration. The invention is based on the object of creating a web printing machine and a method for operating a web printing machine.

The DE 10 2009 018 269 A1 relates to a machine device and a production method for the production of stitched printed products, in particular for the production of products in the Rhenish format with an advertising insert. A first product version has an advertising insert in the form of a half-format "pullstrip" arranged between the staples. In another embodiment, a product with a longitudinally folded display part in oversize format with an upper edge section folded in at an additional fold is produced from a web with a special width. The display part is connected to the other layers of the product by stitching in its longitudinal fold.

Through the US 2002/0195813 A1 a printed product and a method for its production is known, by means of which or which material is to be saved. The solution is, depending on the size of the content to be placed in the newspaper, instead of "filler text", in addition to the full format pages, narrower or shorter product pages can also be included in the product. For example, pages half the width could also be provided in the broadsheet product and pages half or even a quarter of the height in the tabloid product.

The U.S. 3,275,316 A discloses a variety of proposals for the training of newspaper promotional inserts. In one of the versions, a longitudinally folded double sheet which z. B. can be placed in the middle of the newspaper opened on the spine fold, a reply card, which is formed in a corner of the page by two perforations and can be removed by cutting.

The DE 10 2009 002 091 A1 discloses a printing machine and a method for producing printed products in a web printing machine.

The DE 10 2005 039 073 A1 relates to a printing machine system, in which in one production situation newspaper pages can be produced in a broadsheet arrangement and in another production situation telephone book or magazine pages can be produced in a tabloid arrangement.

The invention is based on the object of providing a method and a web printing machine for the simple production of an innovative printed product.

The object is achieved according to the invention by the features of claims 1 and 7, respectively.

The advantages that can be achieved with the invention are in particular that with little Effort a visually striking product is created. The method according to the invention and the web-fed printing machine according to the invention make it possible to manufacture the product without additional method steps, ie “inline” with the printing process, and / or without major structural changes. Such a product can preferably be produced on a newspaper printing press.

In an advantageous embodiment, the printing units used for special production are designed as dry offset printing units, ie without a dampening unit and / or using printing formes for dry offset. In an operational situation, the product can then be printed on a higher quality paper, e.g. B. a coated paper with a coat weight of at least 5 g / m ² and / or a grammage of z. B. more than 55 g / m ² can be produced.

In particular, the printing machine and the method can also be used for the inline production of hybrid products.

Finally, an existing printing press can be upgraded in a simple manner with little effort to produce the special products.

A web-fed printing press, for example a web-fed rotary printing press, in particular a newspaper printing press, has several printing units 01 ; 48 , e.g. B. offset printing units 01 , through which a z. B. from a roll changer 03 unwound original track 02 ; 02 '; 02 " , short train 02 ; 02 '; 02 " , single or multi-colored on both sides with print images 16 ; 16 ' later printed pages S. ; S ' of products 09 ; 09` , especially printed products 09 ; 09` , e.g. B. Print page images 16 ; 16` , is printable.

Several printing units 01 are in the preferred embodiment of a printing machine designed as a newspaper printing machine one above the other in a so-called printing tower 04 arranged through which the - preferably substantially vertically through the printing tower 04 guided - train 02 ; 02 ' , e.g. B. a paper web 02 ; 02 ' preferably made of, for example, uncoated newsprint (e.g. in standard production), can be printed in multiple colors on both sides. A printing tower 04 can consist of a printing unit or of several stacked printing units, e.g. B. two H-printing units. When the printing machine is designed as a newspaper printing machine, there are advantageously several such printing towers 04 for printing several lanes 02 ; 02 ' provided side by side, with z. B. several lanes 02 ; 02 ' or several from the same and / or different tracks 02 ; 02 ' partial webs obtained by longitudinal cutting 02.1 ; 02.2 ; 02.1 '; 02.2 '; 02.3 '; 02.1 "; 02.2 "; 02.3 " for subsequent processing in one of the printing units 01 downstream superstructure 06 and / or one of the superstructure 06 downstream rebate structure 07 summarized and for example in a further processing unit 08 , e.g. B. a folder 08 , after a cross cutting along a cross cutting or in particular cross cutting line t together to a product 09 ; 09 ' are or can be processed. In the folder 08 preferably the product sections with a cross fold Q provided, which in the case of a broadsheet product 09 a transport fold running transversely to the reading fold, and for the case of a tabloid product 09` the reading fold or spine of the product 09 ; 09` forms. The latter can u. U. in a further processing for special products are still separated in a cutting device.

The printing unit 01 each has at least one imaging printing unit cylinder 11 , e.g. B. a forme cylinder 11 on, which is preferably side by side with at least two printing forms 14th ; 14 ' is equipped or can be equipped. In the advantageous version of the printing units 01 as offset printing units 01 instructs the printing unit 01 one with the forme cylinder 11 on the one hand and with the web to be printed 02 ; 02 ' on the other hand cooperating further printing cylinder 12 , e.g. B. Transfer cylinder 12 , on.

The forme cylinder 11 comprises a bale on its outer surface in the range of a usable width b _N , z. B. Nominal size b _N , printed page templates 13 , in the following also print templates 13 or print page subject 13 called, for the print images of several on the web 02 print page images to be printed 16 a first format F. , e.g. B. Print page images 16 of standard printed pages S. , especially newspaper pages S. of a nominal format F. , are arranged or can be arranged (see e.g. 2 ), with the print page images 16 in the later product 09 the product pages S. form. The print image templates or subjects 13 are in one embodiment, for example, in a standing arrangement, for. B. in broadsheet arrangement (z. B. with the long side of the print image or print page template 13 running in the circumferential direction) on the forme cylinder 11 arranged. An arrangement of broadsheet pages is e.g. B. exemplarily in 2 through the "standing" print page subjects 13 or print page images 16 shown. Likewise, it can be provided in an embodiment variant or operating variant (not shown) for standard production to occupy the forme cylinder 11 to be provided with tabloid pages in a lying arrangement. The height of a broadsheet print page here preferably corresponds to the width of two horizontal tabloid print pages, so that the nominal width b _N and a subject width b13 is retained in each case.

The barrel width can in principle be longer than the usable width b _N , for example if am is not due to printed page templates 13 assignable edge area bearer rings and / or wiper grooves etc. are provided. The page templates provided next to one another 13 are detachable on one or in particular on several side by side on the circumference of the forme cylinder 11 attachable printing forms 14th arranged. This is or will be for the print job on the forme cylinder 11 , for example in a continuous axially extending channel or in several staggered, ie axially extending channel sections arranged offset in the circumferential direction by less than one plate length, suspended and optionally additionally fixed.

The printing cylinder 11 ; 12 the printing units 01 of the at least one printing tower 04 are z. B. formed n pages wide, with n ∈ N, n> 1, preferably n> 2, in particular n = 4, 5 or 6. This designation characterizes the printing units 01 or the printing tower 04 or the printing unit cylinders 11 ; 12 with regard to their nominal size b _N , based on the number of side by side on the forme cylinder 11 printed page templates to be arranged 13 of printed pages S. or print page images 16 a first operating situation or production provided for the printing press, e.g. B. Standard production, the first, also as a nominal format F. designated format F. . The n-page wide printing units 01 or printing towers 04 or printing cylinder 11 ; 12 are for example at least two pages wide (n 2), but in particular four pages wide (n = 4) or six pages wide (n = 6), based on the width b13 the print template 13 , ie subject width b13 or later page width b _S , or the on the web 02 printed image 16 in standard production, which is, for example, the side width b _{S of} the first product to be manufactured 09 , e.g. B. standard newspaper product, a typical product width for this newspaper product b _P and Product height h _P represents executed. The nominal width b _N then has a length of n printed page templates to be arranged next to one another 13 . This corresponds to standing print page templates 13 on the forme cylinder 11 , ie broadsheet arrangement, the width of n printed page widths of the product 09 , with the print page templates arranged horizontally 13 on the forme cylinder 11 , ie tabloid arrangement, the width of n printed page lengths of the product 09 . The side lengths of the printed page are the side lengths b _S and side height h _S S. in the later product 09 where the page height h _{S is} the height of the print page S. means in their correct page orientation for viewing by a viewer. For the latter z. B. - initially regardless of which side is the longer - the orientation of the majority of the text passages or image components on the printed page S. ; S ' decisive.

A ratio between the side lengths b _S; h _S , in particular between page width b _S and page height h _S , a single printed page of a single page or a two-page wide folded sheet (to distinguish it from any panorama printed pages), the printed page (s) of the first format F. amounts, for example, to at least 0.55, advantageously at least 0.60, and at most 0.80, preferably from 0.65 to 0.75. This applies e.g. B. also for the ratio between product width b _P and product height h _P for one at the transport fold L. open, but at the back fold L. still closed product 09 .

In an advantageous embodiment, the side height h _{S of} the print side lies S. (Single print side) between 490 mm and 510 mm, is preferably 500 mm ± 4 mm. The page width b _{S of} the print page S. lies z. B. between 337 and 368 mm, preferably at 348 ± 3 mm.

This is preferably at least one printing unit 01 or are the printing units 01 of the printing tower 04 or its printing unit cylinder 11 ; 12 with a nominal width b _N corresponding to the width of an even number of printed pages in width (based on the standard product), z. B. n-page width with n = 2, 4, 6, ..., in particular n = 4 or n = 6. The machine or the printing unit 01 or the printing unit cylinders 11 ; 12 are then - what z. B. the standard product width or subject width b13 concerns - m-fold, with m = n / 2, n ∈ ℕ and n ≥ 2, z. B. double-wide (n = 4, m = 2) or triple-wide (n = 6, m = 3), ie m ∈ ℕ, m> 1, in particular m = 2 or 3.

In a first operating mode, the standard production with the first or standard format F. , becomes the m-fold width (e.g. double-width or four-side width) web 02 in the superstructure 06 by at least one longitudinal cutting knife 17th having longitudinal cutting device 18th in z. B. m two-page width partial webs 02.1 ; 02.2 cut. A second longitudinal cutting knife 17th is z. B. in a parking position and / or in a parked position. In a preferred embodiment of the printing machine, the folding structure is 07 in the alignment of at least one or more printing towers 04 arranged in such a way that the transport direction projected in a horizontal plane T one on a former 19th of the seam structure 07 accruing web 02 or partial course 02.1 ; 02.2 perpendicular to the axis of rotation R. the forme cylinder 11 ; 12 or parallel to a machine center plane M. runs. Below machine center plane M. this is to be understood as the vertical plane which the forme cylinder 11 the printing units 01 that are in the path of the on the folding structure 07 to leading train 02 are arranged perpendicular to their axis of rotation R. at half of its usable width b _N cuts.

The one from one through the printing units 01 or in the printing tower 04 printed web 02 originating partial tracks 02.1 ; 02.2 , e.g. B. m partial tracks 02.1 ; 02.2 , can then go straight ahead to the rebate structure after the longitudinal cut 07 be guided (see, for example, the upper track 02 in the superstructure 06 of the 1 and configuration in 2 ). Alternatively, one of the z. B. two-sided wide partial webs 02.1 ; 02.2 after the longitudinal section in a known manner over two turning bars 21st a turning device 22nd in the escape of another part of the railway 02.2 ; 02.1 out and together with this over a same fold former 19th be guided (see e.g. the example of the lower track 02 in the superstructure 06 of the 1 and configuration in 3 ). In 3 and in the following figures, for reasons of clarity, not all of the reference numerals for the identically recurring parts and objects are consistently listed, but of course they are to be transferred and applied to these in each case.

The fold structure 07 preferably has at least one former level with a number of t formers next to one another 19th on (t ∈ ℕ). The former level is understood to mean a machine level or operating level, with the former 19th this plane cut at least the same horizontal plane and / or vertically z. B. can be offset from one another by up to half a funnel height. The fold structure preferably has 07 a funnel level of a number t with t = m, e.g. B. t = m = 2, fold formers 19th on when m z. B. as set out above as half the number n of printed pages to be printed next to one another 16 of the first format F. is defined. The former 19th can also have a longitudinal cutting device in the center of the funnel 23 be upstream, through which - z. B. in the case of tabloid production - two-page-wide partial webs 02.1 ; 02.2 can be cut into one-side-wide partial web strips aligned in the center of the funnel. Between two formers 19th can also have a longitudinal cutting device for a Funnel intermediate cut be provided. One without the center cut of the funnel over the former 19th guided partial course 02.2 ; 02.2 receives a longitudinal fold through the latter L. which, in the case of a broadsheet product, forms the read or spine fold. For the case of partial webs cut in the center of the funnel 02.1 ; 02.2 are single-page wide partial web strips through the former 19th placed on top of each other.

The fold formers 19th preferably have a usable width b19 for folding a web 02 or partial course 02.1 ; 02.2 on, the width of which are two printed pages arranged side by side S. or print page images 16 of the first or standard format F. correspond. The (respective) former 19th can in this case - as far as its usable width is concerned - preferably be designed in a fixed format. It has an effective width, ie a width in the approach area of an approaching web 02 or partial course 02.1 ; 02.2 , on which two print images printed side by side 16 of standard printed pages S. corresponds to and / or an m-th part of the nominal width b _N of the web 02 printing printing unit 01 or printing tower 04 corresponds. In an advantageous embodiment of the printing machine with m-fold widths, for. B. double-width printing units 04 or forme cylinders 11 includes the fold structure 07 a funnel level which at least t = m, e.g. B. exactly t = m, fold formers 19th having side by side. The number t , in particular t = m, e.g. B. t = 2, fold formers arranged side by side 19th together form an effective width b07 from which through each to the machine center plane M. distant ends of the effective width b19 of the two outermost t formers 19th is formed. At t = 2 fold formers 19th is the effective width b07 the former level by the sum of the effective widths of the two fold formers 19th given. It preferably corresponds to the nominal width b _N .. The fold formers 19th each have an actual or an imaginary funnel tip resulting from the extension of the arrow-shaped converging lateral funnel flanks 26th on. The distance a19 is in a simple design of the fold structure 07 operationally fixed, but possibly adjustable for adjustment purposes. The preferably operationally fixed or with variable spacing formers 19th distance taken in standard production a19 corresponds to twice that in the longitudinal direction of the forme cylinder 11 considered width b13 of the print page subject 13 one printed page S. or a print page image 16 in standard format F. .

In the first mode of operation, e.g. B. standard production, the m partial webs generated by longitudinal cutting can be in at least one path guidance variant 02.1 ; 02.2 or partial web strips divided from this again in a straight line onto the t formers 19th be guided.

As an alternative to standard production with standard printed pages S. or print pages 16 in nominal format F. The printing press is preferably used to produce a special production that differs from the first production (standard production) and has at least one different from the first production, preferably compared to the first subject width b13 smaller, second width b'13 of the printed page template 13 ' or on the train 02` printed image 16 , ie subject width b'13 and if necessary in from the number n of standard printed pages S. or print page images 16 different number n 'side by side by the printing units 01 pages to be printed S ' or print page images 16 ' educated. The second subject width b'13 on the forme cylinder 11 is designed such that a ratio between the second subject width b'13 and an integer, at most sixth part of the forme cylinder circumference U , preferably half or a quarter of the forme cylinder circumference U , from 0.90 to 1.10, preferably between 0.92 and 1.08, that is, the subject 13 ' has an at least approximately square shape, the second subject width b'13 preferably at the same time a single-digit integer, part of the nominal width b <sub>N</sub> , but preferably a maximum of one third, e.g. B. in the case of a double-width printing unit 01 one third or sixth or in the case of a triple-width printing unit 01 for example, one ninth. In a preferred embodiment, the ratio is between the second to the first subject width b13 ; b'13 on 2: 3. The above to the subject 13 ; 13` The same applies to the dimensioning of the transverse to the web 02` running width b'16 and that in the longitudinal direction of the web 02` running height h'16 of the subject 13 ; 13` come on the train 02` printed image 16 ' one in the later product 09` or partial product 09` (see below) present single print page S ' . This allows for both types of production or both products 09 ; 09 ' (or partial products 09 ; 09 ' of a hybrid product Z ) the same web width b01 ; b02 ' for full or partial width, e.g. B. half, original tracks 02 ; 02 ' retained or used. In an advantageous development, the web is or will be 02 through a dryer 24 , e.g. B. a hot air dryer 24 , guided. In addition to this or as an alternative, it is possible to manufacture the product 09` an origin orbit 02 ' from higher quality paper, e.g. B. from coated paper with a coat weight of at least 5 g / m ² and / or a grammage of z. B. more than 55 g / m ² , through the printing tower 04 and the fold structure 07 be led.

The number n 'of the maximum next to each other on a web 02 ' print page images to be printed 16 ' of z. B. second format F 'corresponds to the above-mentioned integer part of the nominal diameter b _N .

In an advantageous double-width and double-circumference embodiment, the printed image master 13 'has a subject width in special production b'13 from 225 to 245 mm and a subject height h'13 from 240 to 260 mm, whereby the above ratio must be maintained. In a preferred embodiment, this has the printed image template 13` one subject width in special production b'13 of 232 ± 2 mm and a subject height h'13 of 250 ± 2 mm. The forme cylinder 11 shows here z. B. a nominal width of 1,392 ± 12 mm and a circumference U from 1,000 ± 8 mm.

In the later product 09` In the case of a tabloid arrangement, the page width bS corresponds to the subject height h13 and the page height h'S the subject width b'13 .

B. a second former level with at least one former 19th is provided, for example, those in the standard format F. printed partial web (s) 02.1 ; 02.2 on one or more formers 19th one hopper level, and the partial web (s) printed in the special format F ' 02.1 '; 02.2 '; 02.3 '; 02.1 "; 02.2 "; 02.3 " after moving to the side (turning) on one or more fold formers 19th the other funnel level are or be.

In an advantageous further development - especially for the production of hybrid products Z - At least one of the formers can 19th , for example at least the former 19th over which the special product 09 ' is to be formed or is formed, in a direction projected in the horizontal direction of the fold former in question 19th accruing partial track 02.1 ; 02.2 ; 02.1 '; 02.2 ' , 02.3 '; 02.1 "; 02.2 "; 02.3 " adjustable (exemplified by double arrow ↔ in 12 and arrowhead ⊙ in 13 indicated) or possibly one of at least two in the transport direction T fold formers not designed to be movable during operation 19th with its funnel tip in the direction of transport T offset to the other former 19th be trained. Depending on the - variable or fixed - offset, a relative position of the possibly stapled or possibly cross-glued special product to the newspaper part in the overall product, in particular the height of the position of the special product along the cross fold Q of the newspaper-like sub-product 09 , determined and changed. Is the funnel tip of the special side strand 27.1 forming former 19th in transport direction T at the same level as that of the standard side strand 27.2 forming former 19th , the special product lies in the later hybrid product Z with one side flush with the side of the back fold L. of the newspaper section (e.g. 14th ). Is the funnel tip of the special side strand 27.1 forming former 19th in transport direction T but about the difference between the page width of the special pages S ' or their print page images 16 ' and the side length of the standard sides offset, the special product lies in the later hybrid product Z with one side flush with that of the back fold L. opposite open side of the newspaper section (e.g. 15th ).

As an alternative to - variable or fixed - offset of the former 19th can for the production variant with one-side-wide partial webs 02.1 "; 02.2 "; 02.3 " the position of the special product in relation to the newspaper part in the overall product also through the alignment of the on the former 19th accumulating one-sided width partial webs 02.1 "; 02.2 "; 02.3 " can be varied by varying the lateral position. Run the partial courses 02.1 "; 02.2 "; 02.3 " for example with a The long side is flush with the alignment of the funnel tip, so the special product lies in the later hybrid product Z with one side flush with the side of the back fold L. of the newspaper section (e.g. 14th ). Conversely, the special product in the later hybrid product Z has one side flush with that of the back fold L. opposite open side of the newspaper part when the partial webs 02.1 "; 02.2 "; 02.3 " For example, one long side runs flush with a lateral edge of the usable funnel width (e.g. 14th ). A setting takes place, for example, by moving the second of the respective partial path to the side 02.1 "; 02.2 "; 02.3 " wrapped turning bar 21st . For example, all relative positions can be produced between these two extreme positions.

In the in kind of 12 to 15th manufactured hybrid products Z can the special products 09 ' As explained above, they can be connected to one another by, for example, cross stitching or, alternatively, possibly by gluing.

The inline production of the hybrid product Z is preferably carried out either using double-round printing cylinders 11 ; 12 in simple production or using simple round printing cylinders 11 ; 12 .

This in 12 to 15th The example shown is to be applied to any combination of first and second modes of operation, that is to say for example the standard and special productions mentioned above. In the production variants, in which standard part and special part via two separate ones, on the folder 08 strands brought together 27.1 '; 27.2 are formed, the special product lies 09 ' im on the transport fold Q or cross fold Q folded newspaper section.

Separate production and subsequent plugging make it a hybrid product Z can be produced, in which one at its reading fold (here along the transverse fold line q ) folded, essentially square special product in this way into the newspaper part product 09 inserted is that it is in the finished overall product Z in a single or multiple layer on the back of the fold L. contiguous and closed double sheet of the newspaper part product 09 comes to rest (see e.g. 16 and 17th ). In the case of a multi-layer special product, the folded double layers along the cross-fold line q coincident cross stitch line H or glue line I. stapled or glued together.

In a further embodiment of an inline hybrid production is a hybrid product Z producible, in which a at its reading fold (the transverse fold line q ) open, two essentially square printed page images 16 ' side-by-side special product in such a way in the newspaper part product 09 it is inserted that this is in the finished overall product Z in a single or multiple layer on the back of the fold L. contiguous and closed double sheet of the newspaper part product 09 comes to lie open (see e.g. 19th ). In the case of a multi-layer special product, the open double layers lying on top of one another can be used along the line with the transverse fold line q coincident cross stitch line H or glue line I. stapled or glued together.

An in 19th - with or without connection - the product shown can be produced by using one or more partial webs 02.1 '; 02.2 '; 02.3 ; 02.1 "; 02.2 "; 02.3` of the special product 09 ' and one or more sub-courses 02.1 ; 02.2 of the standard product part 09 one on top of the other via the same fold former 19th be performed (e.g. 18th ). For example, the partial courses are 02.1 '; 02.2` ; 02.3 ; 02.1 "; 02.2 "; 02.3` of the special product 09 ' below, so that this in the later hybrid product Z within a longitudinally folded newspaper section 09 come to rest.

A connection of layers of the special product part 09 'can be done, for. B. by stapling or gluing the partial webs to be connected 02.1 '; 02.2 '; 02.3 ; 02.1 "; 02.2 "; 02 .3 'away in the web before running onto the former 19th respectively. For example, in the superstructure 06 Cross-gluing devices should be provided in the affected web paths (e.g. dashed lines in 12 indicated). The glue is applied accordingly by one or more glue application devices 51 each on one of two partial webs to be connected 02.1 '; 02.2 '; 02.3 ; 02.1 "; 02.2 "; 02.3` at the level of a z. B. with the cross fold line q coincident glue line I. . In an alternative version (see e.g. 20th ) can be placed on the former 19th the partial lines to be connected 02.1 '; 02.2` ; 02.3 ; 02.1 "; 02.2 "; 02.3` be merged into a bundle and at the level of a z. B. with the cross fold line q coincident stitch line H by a stapler 52 be stapled crosswise. The subway 02.1 ; 02.2 of the standard product part 09 with the bundle to be stapled only downstream of the stapling device 52 , but before running onto the former 19th summarized.

In the folder 08 the transport cylinder acts 41 downstream with a jaw cylinder 42 to form the cross fold Q together. A paddle wheel can be attached to this 43 connect which the cross-folded products 09 ; 09 '; Z to a product display or to a transport route to one or more further processing steps, e.g. B. a longitudinal hemming and / or a lateral trimming gives. The cross-cutting device for cross-cutting the strand 27 ; 27.1 ; 27'.2 in in the folder 08 Product sections to be processed can be processed separately by strand path Transport cylinder 41 be upstream or act together by a knife cylinder 44 with the transport cylinder 41 be educated.

In a variant, not shown, of the hybrid productions mentioned above, for example one or more, preferably one to three, e.g. B. one page wide with second printed page images 16 ' printed partial webs 02.1 '; 02.2` ; 02.3 ' , and at least one, e.g. B. preferably exactly one two-page width partial webs 02.1 ; 02.2 from the same printed original web 02 ; 02 '; 02 " be or will be obtained by longitudinal cutting. Here are or will be by the printing units 01 side by side printed page images 16 ; 16 ' different width b16 ; b'16 on the same track 02 , 02 '; 02 " upset. For example, the in 18th Form cylinder shown closer to the funnel 11 (04.2) in addition to the subjects 13 ' of the second partial product 09 ' on a longitudinal section, e.g. B. the free left side here subjects 13 of the larger-format, first partial product 09 wear.

In an alternative to the printing tower 04 ; 04.1 ; 04.2 can be the original path 02 '; 02 " of the special product 09 " in the preceding examples also be or will be printed by one or more commercial printing units operating using the digital printing process, in particular using the inkjet process. Here the printing units are switched off 01 comprehensive printing tower 04 ; 04.1 ; 04.2 for example two digital printing units 48 for single-sided multi-color printing or a digital printing unit with two digital printing units 48 intended for double-sided multi-color printing (see e.g. 21st ). This in special production the special product 09 ' printing digital printing unit (s) can or can with one or more other digital printing units or with at least one printing tower 04 together in the printing press, preferably with the option of using the same funnel structure 08 to be able to produce, be arranged.
