Machine arrangement with printing unit for the sequential processing of sheet-type substrates

A machine arrangement for the sequential processing of sheet-type substrates having multiple different processing stations (01;

• 02;
• 03;
• 04;
• 06;
• 07;
• 08;
• 09;
• 11;
• 12), wherein two of the processing stations (01;
• 02;
• 03;
• 04;
• 06;
• 07;
• 08;
• 09;
• 11;
• 12) each have at least one non-impact printing unit (06;
• 37) for printing each of the substrates, wherein the relevant processing station that has the at least one non-impact printing unit (06;
• 37) has a printing cylinder (22;
• 38), wherein the respective non-impact printing unit (06;
• 37) is arranged on the periphery of the printing cylinder (22;
• 38) in each case, wherein each respective printing cylinder (22;
• 38) is configured as triple-sized or quadruple-sized, wherein each respective printing cylinder (22;
• 38) is configured as a suction cylinder, wherein the supply of suction air to the relevant printing cylinder (22;
• 38) is or at least can be switched on and off in each case dependent upon the angular position of said printing cylinder (22;
• 38), wherein each respective printing cylinder (22;
• 38) has multiple fields (51;
• 52;
• 53;
• 54) arranged one behind the other in the circumferential direction on its lateral surface, each for holding one substrate in each case, wherein a dryer (09) is located downstream of the first non-impact printing unit (06) in the direction of transport (T) of the substrates, wherein downstream of this dryer (09) in the direction of transport (T) of the substrates, a turning device (23) is provided, which enables the reverse side of the substrates to also be printed as the process progresses, wherein said turning device (23) is arranged between the processing station having the first non-impact printing unit (06) and the processing station having the second non-impact printing unit (37), in the direction of transport (T) of the substrates.
