Abstract: The invention relates to a method and device for producing and loading of bundles of printed material (18, 19) corresponding to respective specified consolidated orders (20; 30; 23, 33; 26; and 36) consisting of a specified number of preferably similar types of printed material that belong to a shipment (16) allocated to a means of transportation (11, 11?), with which bundles of printed material of shipment (16) can be produced on at least two production lines (2, 3) that can be operated independently of each other according to the consolidated orders (20; 30; 23, 33; 26; 36) are conveyed to a loading station (11) and are loaded there, wherein the production lines (2, 3) are automatically controlled by the shipment data corresponding to the production of the bundles of printed material (18, 19) depending upon the individual consolidated orders (20; 30; 23, 33; 26; 36) of the shipment (16).

Abstract: A method for producing individually assembled printed products includes supplying from a production line at least one envelope product with an individual, optically detectable marking affixed thereto. A regionally oriented supplement and/or a target-group specific supplement is supplied from at least one other production.

Abstract: A method for ordering and assembling printed products, processed together with allocated supplements or add-on products, into package bundles, including processing printed products in a dispatch area of a shipping facility, picking and assembling allocated add-on products inside an allocation area, where the allocation area is operatively associated with the dispatch area, and detecting the allocated add-on products using an expanded guide system, wherein the expanded guide system monitors both the dispatch area and the allocation area. The invention further includes facility for selecting and assembling orders. The facility includes a dispatch area to process printed products, an allocation area in which allocated add-on products are picked and assembled, and an expanded guide system adapted to detect the allocated add-on products in the dispatch and allocation areas and to control assembly of printed products together with the allocated add-on products into package bundles.
