  • Patent number: 11214053
    Abstract: A printing press has at least one printing unit that comprises one or more printing couples, by the use of which printing press, sheet-format substrate can be printed on at least one side in at least one printing nip. The printing press has at least one product receiving unit, in which the printed sheet-format substrate can be collected to form bundles of products or intermediate products. A rotatable cooling cylinder, for guiding or conveying the sheet-format substrate, is located upstream of the product receiving unit in the substrate path. At least one first electrode is arranged on, and is directed towards the substrate path section that runs over a circumferential section of the cooling cylinder. When an electric voltage is applied to the substrate path, substrate being guided along the substrate path past the electrode is or can be electrostatically charged.
