Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/084464
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for applying at least one strip section (14a) to a flat product composition (11a, b), which comprises printed products in particular. According to the method, a strip section (14a) or an individual element of a specified length is provided and subsequently applied around a selected edge (31) of the product composition (14a, b) in a perpendicular manner with respect to said edge (31) so as to rest against the product composition (14a, b). A reliable operation that is independent of the type of the strip is achieved in that the selected edge (31) of the product composition (11a, b) is moved forward along a transporting path (12), the strip section (14a) is held ready at a specified point of the transporting path (12) so as to intersect the transporting path (12), the selected edge (31) of the product composition (11a, b) is moved past the specified point, and at the same time the selected edge (31) drives the strip section (14a) that is held ready.
