Abstract: A system has: a transport chain, which is roof-shaped in an upper region, along which printed products are transportable astride, collectable, and optionally stitchable in an intermediate stitching station; and a stop, which is adjustable in accordance with a format of a printed product of the printed products being delivered, is arranged in a transport direction of the printed products, and is positioned after the intermediate stitching station along the transport chain, the stop corresponding to a location of delivery of the printed product from the transport chain. A cyclic transfer of the printed product during the delivery takes place via a delivery system, the delivery system having in an infeed region a printed product transporter configured to transfer the printed product being delivered, the printed product transporter having pivot arms, the pivot arms being controllable according to a measured thickness of the printed product being delivered.

Abstract: A system, preferably a saddle stitcher, includes: a transport chain, which is roof-shaped in an upper region, along which one or more printed products is astride transportable, collected, and are optionally stapled in an intermediate stapling station; and a stop adjustable according to a format of a printed product of the printed products, the stop being arranged in a transport direction of the printed product, behind the stapling station, and along a further course of the transport chain. The stop is in operative connection with a delivery system and an ejector that operate interdependently with each other to perform a format-stabilized discharge of the printed product in accordance with a cycle; and that the format-stabilized printed product is fed to a cutting apparatus.
