Abstract:
In some examples, a sheet-processing machine includes a transport unit for transporting sheets. The transport unit includes a feed roller configured as an infeed roller and a feed roller configured as a diverting roller, which define a transport plane of sheets. At least two further feed rollers of the transport unit are arranged outside the transport plane. At least one feed roller of the at least two further feed rollers is configured as a pivoting roller that pivots and/or that can be pivoted about a pivot axis. The pivot axis of the pivoting roller is an axis that is normal of an axis of rotation of the pivoting roller, and the pivoting roller is configured to automatically pivot about the pivot axis.
