A gripper cylinder configurable as a printing cylinder of a sheet-fed printing machine, a feeder drum in a sheet-fed printing machine, or a gripper cylinder in a folder unit. The gripper cylinder includes a stationary stator and a gripper spindle assembly mounted to the cylinder. The gripper spindle assembly includes a gripper pivotably mounted to a gripper support. Instead of using a mechanical cam, the gripper can be controllably pivoted together with a cam roller by an armature that can be magnetized but is not permanently magnetic when an electric current flows through the stator thereby magnetizing a housing of the stator. The armature may be magnetically urged against the restoring force of a spring.
