Abstract
A rotary lead-through assembly supplies an operating fluid to a rotor of a machine for processing printing material. An operating cylinder includes an expansion chamber and a piston having a piston outlet opening. The piston is mounted so as to be displaceable towards the rotor for coupling a rotor inlet opening and the piston outlet opening with one another. A pressure generator is connected both to the expansion chamber and to the rotor, when the openings are coupled with one another. A threshold value valve is disposed between the expansion chamber and the piston outlet opening. The valve is automatically openable when a given threshold value of an excess pressure of the operating fluid is exceeded. A machine for processing printing material is also provided.
