Abstract

Device for feeding single-sheet material to a cylinder accepting the single-sheet material, with feed channels to which, respectively, at least one friction-roller set is assigned, the friction-roller set being mounted so as to be adjustable between a press-on position and a lift-off position, and being insertable into the feed channels cyclically with a feeding of sheet material, includes at least one swivelable transport member disposed adjacent the feed channels and, located at the feed channels downstream from the swivelable transport member, as viewed in sheet transport direction, sheet-guiding elements for maximizing accuracy of the feeding of the sheet material into sheet-holding elements of a sheet-guiding cylinder.
