Abstract
In the case of the method of setting the folding-nip width of a plurality of pairs of folding rollers which are provided on a folding machine, the two folding rollers ( to ) of the pairs of folding rollers are brought into contact with one another. A sheet is then guided through between the two folding rollers ( to ) of the pairs of folding rollers, as a result of which at least one of the two folding rollers ( to ) moves in relation to the other, with a folding nip being formed in the process, it being the case that, for each pair of folding rollers, a measured value corresponding to the folding-nip width is detected as the sheet is guided through. Finally, the folding-nip widths of the individual pairs of folding rollers are set by adjustment of the at least one moveable folding roller ( to ) by means of a drive ( ), which is connected kinematically thereto, based on the corresponding measured values which have been detected.
