Abstract:
A machine arrangement, for sequentially processing sheet-type substrates, includes a plurality of different processing stations, one of which includes a non-impact printing device that prints the substrates. The processing station, including the non-impact printing device, also includes a printing cylinder, on the circumference of which, the non-impact printing device that prints the substrates is arranged. On the circumferential surface of the printing cylinder, four substrates are or can be placed behind each other in the circumferential direction. Each of the substrates that are to be conveyed are retained in one of a force-locking and a form-fitting manner on the circumferential surface of the printing cylinder by at least one retaining element.

Claim (Index 38):
A machine arrangement for the sequential processing of sheet-type substrates, comprising a plurality of different processing stations, wherein one of the processing stations includes a non-impact printing unit ( 06 ) that prints each of the substrates, wherein the processing station that includes the non-impact printing unit ( 06 ) comprises a printing cylinder ( 22 ;  117 ;  118 ), wherein the non-impact printing unit ( 06 ) is arranged on the periphery of the printing cylinder ( 22 ;  117 ;  118 ), wherein the printing cylinder ( 22 ;  117 ;  118 ) is embodied as quadruple-sized, wherein a transfer drum ( 43 ) embodied as double-sized or triple-sized is disposed directly upstream of the printing cylinder ( 22 ;  117 ;  118 ) or a transfer drum ( 44 ) embodied as triple-sized is disposed directly downstream of the printing cylinder, characterized in that four substrates that are to be printed by the non-impact printing unit ( 06 ) are or at least can be arranged one behind the other in the circumferential direction on the circumferential surface of the printing cylinder ( 22 ;  117 ;  118 ), wherein each of these substrates to be transported is held in a force-locking and/or form-fitting manner on the circumferential surface of the printing cylinder ( 22 ;  117 ;  118 ) by means of at least one retaining element, wherein the quadruple-sized printing cylinder ( 22 ;  117 ;  118 ) receives the substrates to be printed from the transfer drum ( 43 ) located immediately upstream, or wherein the quadruple-sized printing cylinder ( 22 ;  117 ;  118 ) transfers the printed substrates to the triple-sized transfer drum ( 44 ) located immediately downstream of this printing cylinder ( 22 ;  117 ;  118 ).
