In some examples, a sheet processing machine includes at least one transport means of an infeed system, and the infeed system includes at least one cam mechanism including, in each case, at least one cam disk having an axis of rotation. At least one scanning element is arranged in each case to rest against the at least one cam disk. The at least one scanning element is connected to the at least one transport means via at least one drive lever. The at least one drive lever in each case has at least one mounting point. The mounting point and the axis of rotation may be adjusted relative to one another, and a position displacement of the mounting point relative to the axis of rotation may compensate for at least one position error of the at least one sheet.

Sheet processing machine comprising at least one transport means of an infeed system and method for changing the relative position of a transport means of an infeed system

In some examples, a sheet processing machine includes at least one sensor device that includes at least two sensors configured as a camera. The sheet processing machine further includes at least one infeed system. The at least one sensor device is configured to control, by open-loop control and/or closed-loop control, at least one servo drive of the infeed system as a function of at least one sheet of sheets being detected by the at least two sensors. The at least two sensors are configured to selectively detect at least one edge and/or printing mark of the sheets. Some examples likewise relate to a method for controlling, by open-loop control and/or closed-loop control, at least one component of a sheet processing machine.

Sheet processing machine comprising at least one sensor device, and method for controlling by open-loop control and/or closed-loop control at least one component of a sheet processing machine

In some examples, a sheet processing machine includes at least one infeed system including at least one transport means including at least one upper holder and at least one lower holder. The at least one transport means can be and/or is arranged in at least three states: a maximally closed state corresponding to a minimal distance, a minimally closed state corresponding to a maximal distance, and an at least one mean state corresponding to at least one mean distance between at least one upper holding surface at least of the respective upper holder, and at least one lower holding surface of the lower holder of the at least one transport means that is assigned to the respective upper holder. During a machine cycle, the at least one transport means has each of the minimally closed state, the maximally closed state, and the at least one mean state at least once.
