DEF

A perfecting press that prints directly from a flat forme and in which paper is fed from a web. After impression, the web is automatically cut, folded, and delivered.

OBS

Although it is found, the term "flatbed rotary press" is misleading since "rotary" implies printing from a moulded or curved plate carried on a cylinder, not from a forme carried on a bed as is the case here.
