Abstract

Verfahren und Vorrichtung zum Verarbeiten und Fördern eines Produktstroms, das ein in einen Falzapparat (1) laufendes Förderband (9) zum Ergreifen von Produkten (29,30) umfaßt. Das Förderband (9) umfaßt Produktgreifer (10), die darauf in einer Endloskonfiguration angeordnet sind. Mindestens einige der Greifer (10) sind selektiv um eine Achse (20) während der Bewegung des Förderbandes drehbar (9), damit die ergriffenen Signaturen (29,30) in eine Konfiguration der vorlaufenden Ecken überführt werden können. Wenn nur eine ausgewählte Gruppe von Greifern (10) gedreht wird, kann ein sekundärer Produktstrom gebildet werden.
