A printing press arrangement has a plurality of processing stations for processing sheets. The plurality of processing stations are arranged one after another in a transport direction of the sheets for in-line processing of the sheets. At least one of the processing stations is configured as a non-impact printing device. A transfer device, which is arranged upstream of the active region of the non-impact printing device, is provided for transferring the sheets from a first processing station, which is arranged upstream of the non-impact printing device, to the non-impact printing device. The transfer device aligns, in each case, at least one of the axial register and the circumferential register and the diagonal register of each of the sheets in register relative to the printing position of the non-impact printing device.

The invention relates to a method and a device for arranging sheets in an overlapping position in a transfer unit arranged between a first processing station and a second processing station following the first processing station in a transport direction of the sheets. The sheets to be overlapped are transported from the first processing station to the transfer unit, in a transport plane and each individually lying behind one another. A respective rear, in the transport direction, edge of the sheets coming from the first processing station, is raised relative to the transport plane exclusively by the use of blown air, and a second subsequent sheet is slid under the rear edge of the respective preceding first sheet.

The sheet conveying apparatus includes a conveying belt including a placement area having a suction hole, and configured to convey a sheet with a vacuum force from the suction hole, a sheet supply unit capable of supplying a sheet to a supply position of the sheet with respect to the conveying belt; and a control unit configured to control the conveying belt so as to further move the conveying belt after the conveying belt conveys a last sheet to be conveyed. The control unit causes the conveying belt to wait after moving the placement area to a predetermined position in an area from a position in an upstream direction with respect to the moving direction of the conveying belt to the supply position in a conveying amount of the conveying belt corresponding to a time required for the sheet supply unit to convey a next first sheet to the supply position.

An apparatus for inserting one or more goods into a moving cover includes a cover transport, and at least one filling aid configured to move at least partially into the cover and to be maintained within the cover during at least a part of the movement of the cover.
