In the continuous manufacture of absorbent articles (17) in the form of sanitary napkins, panty liners or incontinence protectors for women, the invention provides a method of providing said articles with protective layers (25, 26, 27). According to the invention, a web (5) of protective layer material whose width corresponds at least to the greatest width of the articles (17) in the machine direction (M) is provided with a sequence of pairs of cuts (8, 9) which are so spaced apart that when the web (5) of protective layer material is placed on a web (1, 3, 4) of article blanks the two cuts (8, 9) in each pair of cuts in the sequence of pairs of cuts will lie linearly between the points of connection of the flap (23, 24) whit the longitudianl edges of each article. The thus cut web (5) of protective layer material is placed on a web (1, 3, 4) or article blanks so that the two cuts in each pair of cuts in the sequence of pairs of cuts will extend linearly between the points where the flaps (23, 24) join the longitudinal edges of each article (17) provided with protective layers (25, 26, 27) are cut from the composite web (1, 3, 4, 5) comprised of the article blanks and the web of protective layer material. The invention also relates to an article on which a protective layer has been applied with the aid of the method. |
