Abstract: An apparatus and method for registering a position of a component of a press is disclosed. The press having a plurality of components that can rotate about a central longitudinal axis, such as a main drive shaft and press cylinders, at least one of these components being assigned at least one position registering device, which registers the angular position of the respective component. The, or each, position registering device is formed as a magnetic rotary encoder.

Abstract: A web-fed rotary printing press is disclosed. The printing press having several printing units and having a folding unit, and a turner bar nest and folding superstructure positioned between the printing units and the folding unit, in which at least one printing substrate web can be separated into partial webs and/or the or each printing substrate web or the or each partial web can be conveyed via turner bars and/or guide rollers to at least one former. At least one guide roller is respectively positioned along the transport path of the or each printing substrate web and/or the or each partial web through the turner bar nest and the folder superstructure, whose two ends are each assigned an adjusting unit, via which the respective end of the respective guide roller can be displaced linearly in and/or opposite from the running direction of the respective printing substrate web or partial web.
