Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method according to the preamble of claim 1 and an apparatus according to the preamble of claim 11 for forming advertising compositions of one envelope and several supplements.
  • the printed products to be merged into the advertising material combination ie both the envelope and the inserts, are each formed by an advertising medium.
  • the respective advertising media depending on their use, will be referred to herein as an envelope or supplements.
  • the envelope and the inserts in the area of a gathering distance are each deducted from a stack of advertising means by means of a separating and feeding element and deposited one at a time onto a conveying element moved in a transporting direction.
  • a leading edge of the envelope in the conveying direction offset from the leading edges of the supplements a protrusion of the envelope relative to the supplements is stored forming.
  • the inserts are forming a set of inserts forming stacked on each other so that the leading edges of the supplements form at least approximately a common fold edge, the supernatant of the flat lying on the conveyor element envelope is only around this folded edge and at least partially around the insert stack forming the advertising composition compiled.
  • the supernatant is thus not wrapped around the trailing area of the inserts of a compilation of advertising material to be produced nor around its side edges.
  • the collection of advertising material is then folded at the folded edge and removed for further processing. Together with the same or other compilations of advertising material, a distribution to wholesale distributors and finally a distribution to end customers is then usually carried out. Of course, a direct shipment to end customers can be made.
  • the first and also further separating and feeding elements are not operated, so that, for example, the second separating and feeding element in the transporting direction or also a separating and feeding element arranged further downstream supplies the advertising material used as an envelope.
  • the supply of the envelope thus takes place in each case with the first, the conveyor element charging separating and feeding.
  • any other separating and feeding element can singulate an envelope from a corresponding stack of advertising and transported to the conveyor element, wherein any other separating and feeding elements feed supplements from other stacks of advertising material.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to provide a method and an apparatus for forming advertising compositions from one envelope and several supplements, in which the conversion from an ad composition with a first envelope to a subsequent ad composition with a different from the first envelope, more Envelope without stopping the device and manages without manual input of the offset for each required, further envelope and thus a higher process performance is possible.
  • advertising media used as envelopes and as supplements are deposited one upon the other in the region of a gathering path one after the other on a conveying element moved in a transporting direction.
  • a leading edge of an envelope in the conveying direction offset from the leading edges of the accompanying supplements a protrusion of the envelope against the inserts forming stored.
  • the inserts are forming a set of inserts forming stacked on each other so that the leading edges of the supplements at least approximately form a common fold edge, wherein the supernatant of the flat lying on the conveyor element envelope is formed around this fold edge and at least partially forming a promotional compilation about the insert pile.
  • the collection of advertising material is then folded at the folded edge and finally transported away for further processing.
  • a subsequent combination of advertising material is formed from a further envelope that differs from the first envelope and associated supplements substantially analogously to the previous combination of advertising material.
  • each advertising medium suitable for use as an envelope for a form of advertising material to be formed is registered in a computer-aided machine control and, for each registered advertising medium, an offset value corresponding to the required projection relative to the associated inserts is defined.
  • This offset value becomes when changing from an ad composition on a subsequent to be formed Thisffenzusammengnagna, with a different from the first envelope further envelope used to form the required supernatant.
  • the switch from an advertising composition with a first envelope to a subsequent advertising composition with a different from the first envelope further envelope without stopping the device and without manual input of the offset for each required envelope can be done in this way.
  • the further envelope can thus be automatically provided with the required projection in relation to the associated inserts, thereby achieving a higher process performance.
  • the envelopes and the supplements are separated from the stack of advertising media prior to their placement on the conveyor element and then transported to the conveyor element.
  • the formation of the advertising material combinations can advantageously be decoupled from the printing of the envelopes and the supplements. It can thus be used as envelopes and supplements at various times as well as on various printing machines produced and assembled into stacks advertising.
  • the projection of the leading edge of an envelope to the leading edges of the associated inserts when separating from the stack of the respective envelope or when separating from the stacks of associated supplements is formed.
  • the projection of the leading edge of an envelope is formed into leading edges of the associated inserts during the transport of the respective envelope or the accompanying inserts to the conveying element.
  • the projection of the leading edge of an envelope to leading edges of the associated inserts during transport of the respective envelope or the accompanying inserts on the conveyor element is formed.
  • the projection of the leading edge of another envelope to the leading edges of the accompanying inserts by an acceleration in comparison to the first envelope or a premature movement of the further envelope when separating from the respective stack or during transport to the conveyor element or formed during transport on the conveying element.
  • this supernatant is formed by an occurring in comparison to the first envelope delay or later moving the respective further envelope belonging supplements when separating from the respective stack or during transport to the conveyor element or during transport on the conveyor element.

  • the envelope advantageously forms a basis for depositing the inserts.
  • the filing of the envelope can also be done after placing the belonging to the compilation of advertising supplements on the conveyor element.
  • Such a method is relatively independent of the way in which the inserts are gathered. These may for example have been previously collected in a separate process before they are placed together on the conveyor element and provided with the envelope.
  • the device according to the invention for forming advertising material compositions has a gathering distance with a conveying element which can be moved in a transport direction.
