Abstract: A method and device for carrying out a reel splice to avoid the fluttering of tails makes it possible to allow the tail to also adhere across its entire length, in particular on a web with high mechanical strength. When using a fluid-repelling substrate, an adhesive-free liquid is applied to a new roll and/or to at least a portion of the side of the tail facing the web. The method and device can be used in reel splicers which process fluid-repellent substrates, such as for example plastic films, metal films or laminated laminates, so that a sticking out or fluttering of the tail is avoided.

Abstract: A web guiding element of a newspaper press includes guide rolls mounted in a frame to form a pre-assembled unit which can be inserted into a paper shaft extending through a ceiling between a reel changer region below the ceiling and a printing unit region above the ceiling. The unit is fixed to the ceiling by holding apparatuses fastened to web guiding walls fixed to the ceiling adjacent to the paper shaft.

Abstract: A rotary printing machine with an understructure that can be simply assembled from girders and then simply disassembled. The girders are connected to one another by removable attachment elements. For example, metal plates are used to connect the girders to one another. The understructure can be disassembled at one location and then reassembled at a different location.
