A method and device for processing printed products made of multiple paper sheets is disclosed. The paper sheets are moved in the direction of a leading open edge and the paper sheets are connected to each other in a detachable manner in the region of the edge.

Method and device for processing printed products made of multiple paper sheets as well as a perforating knife

An apparatus for producing longitudinally folded products has a machine frame () which is arranged below a former arrangement which can be charged with web material. Transporting and processing units are arranged in tandem in the machine frame (), and a superstructure wall () which carries web guiding members () associated with the former arrangement is mounted on the machine frame (). At least one web ribbon () is guided through the superstructure wall (). The machine frame () has at least two modules () arranged one above the other which are rotatable by 180&#xb0; relative to one another and can be connected to one another. Each module () has its own at least one drive motor, and every unit provided in the region of the dividing line () between modules () which are rotatable relative to one another is constructed symmetrically with respect to a center working plane containing the axis of rotation.

Apparatus for producing longitudinally folded products

A device for distributing successive products of a product flow, particularly the successive folding products produced by a cross cutting device by dividing a material web, to two branch flows, with a wedge arrangement which is arranged in a stationary manner in the transporting plane of the product flow and which engages between two cam rollers which flank it and which are arranged symmetrically with respect to the center working plane. The device is characterized in that the wedge arrangement engages between two guide plates which flank it and which, together with the wedge arrangement, define a path fork. The guide plates have slots through which they are alternately penetrated by cams of the respective adjacent cam roller which are associated with the slots, so that the penetrating cams and the guide plate which is not penetrated form a feed for a belt guide associated with a branch flow.
