- Various processing steps are used in processing sheets, in particular sheets made of cardboard or carton or corrugated cardboard, in machines.
- the sheets are exposed to printing fluid such as printing ink or varnish by means of at least one application unit and additionally or alternatively their mass and/or shape and/or contour are changed by at least one shaping device.

- the at least one blank 1101, in particular each blank 1101 of the at least two blanks 1101, which preferably has the at least one adhesive point wetted with adhesive is folded in a subsequent processing step, preferably into at least one folding box.
- the gluing takes place in the same processing step as the folding.
- the inspection preferably the inspection of the at least one adhesive point, preferably takes place before a processing step in which the at least one blank 1101 of the at least two blanks of the at least one sheet 02, preferably each blank 1101, is folded into a folding box and/or the inspection preferably takes place before processing the sheet 02 in the folding device with at least one folding tool designed as a roller and/or at least one edge and/or at least one rail and/or at least one folding roller and/or at least one folding former.
