Method and apparatus for fabricating glass fiber cushioning material
Abstract
Abstract Method and apparatus for fabricating an improved glass fiber multisectioned cushioning material with laminae of adjacent sections normal to each other having uniform alignment of fibers in a primary load direction. Continuously moving the glass fiber forwardly while simultaneously performing different steps on different portions of the glass fiber including slitting the glass fiber into longitudinal strips, assembling the strips into a single- layered structure with the laminae of the adjacent strips normal to each other, assembling a plurality of single-layered structures into a multilayered structure with the laminae of adjacent strips normal to each other, and slicing crosswise through the multilayered structures.
