Abstract: A device and method for transport of flexible, two dimensional products and performance of associated production processing of those products, by which the flexible, two-dimensional products are serially conveyed to a workstation and are conveyed away from the workstation again by the same gripper transporter, which enables the workstation to be selectively removed from the production process being performed along the transport path of the printed products, and to be selectively re-introduced again the transport path, in a flexible manner.

Abstract: A method for transporting two-dimensional, flexible products, in particular printed products, such as newspapers and magazines or parts thereof, with which the product is conveyed from one gripper of a conveyor device, freely held along a conveyor path at least in regions, and the product grasped by the gripper at the edge which is not to be cut, on the conveyor path, is brought into active connection with cutting means of a cutting station in a manner such that at least one edge of the product is cut.

Abstract: A device for cutting flexible, two-dimensional products. The device including a first and a second cutting means (5, 12), between which the two-dimensional products (2) may be cut essentially by way of an impulse cut. A method is also put forward for cutting by way of the impulse cut.

Abstract: Folded inserts (B) are added to folded or bound printed products (P) which, held individually by transfer grippers (6), are conveyed in an essentially continuous fashion, in that the inserts are placed on the folded or rear edges of the printed products in a manner whereby their fold (8) is aligned with the folded or rear edge of the latter. If necessary, the inserts (B) are attached by gluing or stapling to the folded or rear edges of the printed products (P). For adding small inserts the printed products (P) can be conveyed with their folded or rear edges held by the transfer grippers (6) of a printed product conveyor (1) and the insert (B) can be placed next to the gripper (6). If the inserts are larger (B), an auxiliary conveyor takes over the printed products for the placement of the inserts. Such placement of inserts (B) into printed products (P) is simple and can, in particular, be implemented with conventional device components and easily integrated into existing equipment.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for interaction between a user (32, 24), for example, a newspaper publisher, and at least one receiver (A, B, C) to whom a printed product (12, 23, 23a, 23b, 23c, 26) comprising at least one RFID tag (14, 14a, 14b, 14c) is delivered. At least one specific piece of additional information (a, b, c, 42) is stored in at least one RFID tag (14, 14a, 14b, 14c) for the purposes of interaction.

Abstract: A method for processing flexible, two-dimensional products (30, 32, 36, 38) during the print further processing, in which at least one product is provided with an RFID tag (100, 200, 200a, 200b). The RFID tag or tags (100, 200, 200a, 200b) contains or contain at least one piece of control information and/or at least one piece of product information. This information is used for inspecting and/or controlling a work step for the products (30, 32, 36, 38).
