A sheet-fed printing press has at least one coating assembly configured as a non-impact coating assembly. The sheet-fed printing press has at least one transport belt which extends, having at least one transport section of a circular path thereto, parallel to a transport direction along a partial region of a transport path provided for a sheet. At least one coating location of the at least one coating assembly is arranged along the transport section of the at least one transport belt. At least one printing head is arranged connected to at least one first frame of the at least one coating assembly. The at least one transport belt is arranged, connected to at least one second frame, via at least one deflection device and at least one radial bearing. The at least one first frame, apart from at least one installation surface which is different from the at least one first frame and the at least one second frame, is arranged in contact to the second frame at most via flexible connections.

A conveying device includes a rotating carrier, an inlet rotary body, an outlet rotary body, a downstream conveyor, and an inching controller. The rotating carrier carries a sheet. The inlet rotary body transfers the sheet to the rotary carrier from upstream of the rotary carrier in a conveyance direction of the sheet. The outlet rotary body transfers the sheet to a downstream area from the rotary carrier in the conveyance direction. The downstream conveyor conveys the sheet downstream from the outlet rotary body in the conveyance direction. The inching controller performs an inching operation to convey the sheet on a conveyance path including at least the downstream conveyor. The inching controller causes at least the outlet rotary body and the downstream conveyor to perform a conveying operation in conjunction with each other in the inching operation.

The invention describes a system (1) for overprinting on formats, comprising at least one printing unit (2), having first actuation means (14), and also comprising format supplying means (6, 7), format collecting means (9), at least one conveyor belt (5), second actuation means (10), and control means (11, 12, 13). The at least one printing unit (2) comprises at least one rotatable printing cylinder (3), having printing zones at the surface, and also first actuation means (14), configured to drive, in a controllable manner, the rotation of the printing cylinder (3). The format supplying means (6, 7) are configured to supply the system with one or more formats (4), each being intended to be overprinted in preset zones to be overprinted. The format collecting means (9) are configured to collect the one or more formats (8) once printed. The at least one conveyor belt (5) is configured to arrange, for the aforementioned one or more formats (4), an advancement path comprised between the format supplying means (6, 7) and the format collecting means (9). The advancement path passes through the printing unit (2). The second actuation means (10) are configured to drive, in a controllable manner, the advancement of the conveyor belt (4) along the advancement path, upstream of the printing unit (2) in the advancement direction. The control means (11, 12, 13) are configured to control, in a coordinated manner, both the first actuation means (14) and the second actuation means (10), so as to determine at each moment a correspondence of the preset zones to be overprinted of the format (4) with respective printing zones of the printing cylinder (3).

A device for decelerating a transported and flat shaped product includes a brake operable by an air jet supplied by an air jet nozzle. The air jet nozzle is configured to impinge the air jet on a braking force implementing body to exert a braking force on the flat shaped product. The braking force implementing body includes: at least one first element, which has a physical structure for a return-flow of the air jet supplied by the air jet nozzle, and at least one second element, which for the braking force implementation is in an operative connection with the first element. The second element is configured to implement an impulse force caused by the air jet from the air jet nozzle. The impulse force results as the braking force onto the flat shaped product.
