Abstract

The monitoring method uses a number of sensors (3-9) detecting the presence or absence of forms dependent on the selected operating mode of the folding machine (30), with sources (2a,14) detecting the number of forms handled by the folding machine, for comparison with the number of forms detected by the sensors. Also included are Independent claims for the following; (a) a form transport monitoring device; (b) a folding machine for a rotary printing press; (c) a rotary printing press
