Conventional rolling/sliding [or parallel approach] automatic platen. The feeder was placed underneath the shallow delivery tray. At the same time as a sheet was being fed in to the platen guides, delivery suckers were transporting the previous printed sheet to the delivery tray (this action replicated the action of a hand feeder). This model had three forme rollers, the middle one seemingly larger than the other two - used considerably by both platen and cylinder press builders in the 20th century to avoid ghosting.
The original Company was founded in 1896 as Bautzner Industriewerk AG, changed in 1924 to Johne Werk Grafische Maschinen and changed again in 1938 to Johne Werk AG. Sometime around 1972 the Company was absorbed into the Polygraph (Leipzig) organisation and finally acquired by Perfecta Schneidmaschinenwerk GmbH.

Many thanks to Erik Desmyter for supplying the Company history.
