ABSTRACT:
A folder assembly for book folding in a web-fed rotary printing machine is disclosed. A paper web is printed and is then directed to a cutting cylinder, a cooperating folding blade cylinder and to a folding jaw cylinder. A pair of third or quarter folders are coordinated to the folding jaw cylinder. An upper one of these third folders is fixed and receives cross folded signatures from the folding jaw cylinder. A lower one of these third folders is shiftable laterally with respect to the upper third folder generally in a horizontal plane which is parallel to the axis of rotation of the folding jaw cylinder. A gripper cylinder is positioned intermediate the folding jaw cylinder and a transport tape system which is shiftable with, and which conveys signatures from the gripper cylinder to the lower third folder. Both upper and lower third folders can be operated concurrently or either one can be operated by itself in response to desired production demands.
