Abstract: There is described a numbering system for carrying out numbering in a printing press comprising a numbering cylinder, a rotatable shaft defining a rotation axis, at least one supporting disc mounted on the rotatable shaft for rotation therewith, the supporting disc comprising a peripheral mounting ring for mounting of at least one numbering device (1.06; 2.06) on a periphery of the supporting disc, which numbering device (1.06; 2.06) is secured to the peripheral mounting ring (1.43) by means of a clamping mechanism. The peripheral mounting ring (1.43) has a T-shaped cross-section defining a pair of annular mounting grooves (1.43a, 1.43b) on each side of the peripheral mounting ring (1.43). The numbering device (1.06; 2.06) comprises clamping elements (1.50; 2.50) on each side of the numbering device (1.06; 2.06) which are adapted to cooperate with the annular mounting grooves (1.43a, 1.43b) for securing the numbering device (1.06; 2.06) onto the peripheral mounting ring (1.43). The clamping elements (1.50; 2.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method, a device and a system for fixing a miniaturized component—especially carrying or containing at least one optical element—to a carrier plate in a highly-precise manner, by means of a soldered joint, a welded joint or an adhesive joint. Said component is positioned above the carrier plate in a relation to outer reference points by means of a gripper pertaining to a robot station. A joint is then created between the component and the carrier plate, the joint seam hardening under contraction between the component and the carrier plate, thus exerting a vertical tractive force on the gripper holding the component. At the same time as the contraction, the gripper is vertically displaced towards the carrier plate in a controlled or regulated manner, optionally up to a defined nominal position, and actively yields to the contraction such that the creation of high tensions is largely avoided and the position does not change when the component is detached from the gripper.
