Means and method for applying facing strips to cores
Abstract
Abstract A means and method for the continuous application of a flexible facing strip of indefinite length to one face of each of a succession of cores while all are advancing in end to end engagement through a fixed path. The method involves (1) drawing the strip from a supply roll to overlie the top face of a plurality of cores for adhesion thereto while advancing end to end in a procession, (2) forming lines of future rupture across the strip, while advancing toward the cores, at points which are coincident with the trailing ends thereof, and (3) thereafter tensioning the advancing strip, as each core nears the end of its movement through a fixed path therefor, at points on opposite sides of each line of rupture, transversely of the strip to produce thereat a clean deverance thereof whereby to free each core, in turn, for removal from those to the rear thereof.
