  • the feed stations are designed to place folded printed products astride the printed products already placed on the wall elements, or to insert inserts on the sides into the compartments delimited by the wall elements. In the case of processing stations, inserts are glued side-by-side onto the printed products which are preferably fed to the processing drum, or the collected printed products are stapled together.
