A method and an apparatus for axially positioning a flexible plate on a surface of a cylinder, that is divided into several axially spaced segments, utilizes a plate transport arrangement to transfer plates from a plate preparation device to the plate cylinder. The plate is axially shiftable during transport and arrives at the plate cylinder in proper axial position.

Device for assembling, dismantling and transporting easily bent,

Device for mounting, dismounting and transporting curved objects that

Printing plates that are to be attached to a plate cylinder are suspended by their leading edges on suspension edges of a shiftable plate preparation device. This device can be moved to a plate mounting position where it overlies a plate storage device that is integrated with an inking system protector. The printing plates can be removed from the plate preparation device and carried to the plate cylinder by a printing plate manipulating device.
