  • Folders can preferably be monitored by means of the solution according to the invention, which are subordinate to a roll rotation, the monitoring unit each according to the copy path required for the selected folding mode Validated sensors and the sensor signals validated in this way for the number who compares the copies with the one that entered the folder. Out this comparison made in real time can be a shutdown condition in the Folder and / or derived for the entire rotation.
  • Fig. 1 is the basic structure of a folder with the respective copy paths assigned sensor pairs shown.
  • the material web 15 transported in the conveyor plane 16 passes through Cutting cylinder pair 2b, 17, consisting of a cutting cylinder 2b and one with this cooperating slot cylinder 17. There the individual copies separated from the material web 15 by transverse cutting.
  • An encoder 2a can optionally be assigned to the cutting cylinder 2b, which per revolution of the cutting cylinder 2b to the monitoring unit 12 transmitted. For each revolution of the cutting cylinder 2b, exactly one copy of the leading end of the web of material 15 separated, whereby the number of in Folder 30 located copies is easy to determine.
  • the number of in The folder entering the folder 30 can alternatively via a rotary encoder 14 are determined, the revolutions of the folder 30 driving Drive motor 13 detects what is also the number of in the folder has entered specimens determined.
  • the values for the copies entering the folder are continuously determined and are stored in the monitoring unit 12.
  • a folding knife cylinder 18 assigned sensor pair 3 monitors.
  • the folding knife cylinder 18 the folding dapper cylinder 19 together, working between them Cylinders 18, 19 of the first cross fold is formed on the copy.
  • the jaw cylinder 19 are two further transport or gripper cylinders 20, or 21 assigned, which on the one hand form a further transverse fold in the copy and, on the other hand, the copies of the circumference of the jaw cylinder 19 alternate decrease and in this way cause a distribution of the copy flow.
  • An upper conveyor path 22 extends behind the upper transport cylinder 20, secured by a pair of sensors 4 to the upper second longitudinal folding device 10b.
  • the lower transport cylinder 21 is a lower conveying path 23 assigned, also secured by a pair of sensors 5, via which the copies are fed to a further second longitudinal folding device 10a.
