The invention relates to an apparatus (100) for the rubber-coating of metal cords, said apparatus (100) comprising two creels and for each creel a preparation assembly (150, 160) in turn comprising a cord alignment or a set of cord alignment rollers (151, 161), a cord application device (152, 162) configured to apply the metal cords and a joining press (153, 163), wherein said alignment rollers, cord application device and cord joining press are arranged in series along a feeding direction (F). The preparation assemblies (150, 160) are mounted on a common platform (170) movable relative to a calender (110) in a direction (T) perpendicular to the feeding direction (F). The cord application device of each preparation assembly (150, 160) is slidably movable along suitable linear guides (154, 164, 190) between a working position close to the calender (110) and a preparation position within the preparation assembly (150, 160). |
