Zusammenfassung:A reversing or turning assembly of a sheet-processing machine includes an impression cylinder having a circumferential surface for transporting sheets thereon for printing the sheets in a printing nip associated with the impression cylinder. Gripper devices are provided for gripping the printed sheets at a respective trailing edge thereof and for lifting the gripped sheets off the impression cylinder for reversing the gripped sheets. The circumferential surface of the impression cylinder is formed with recesses in a region thereof occupied by the trailing edge of the sheets, for permitting the gripper devices to penetrate or dip into the recesses to grip the sheet trailing edge. The recesses have a position being variable in circumferential direction of the circumferential surface of the impression cylinder for adapting to different sheet formats.
