METHOD FOR HANDLING AND FURTHER PROCESSING A HONEYCOMB BAND

摘要

A method and an apparatus for handling further processing a continuously produced, unstretched honeycomb band is disclosed. To facilitate handling and further processing of the unstretched honeycomb band, the following process steps are used: a) the honeycomb band is reeled and temporarily stored as a reel or marketed as a separate commercial product; b) for further processing, the unstretched honeycomb band is unwound from the reel and stretched into the desired final shape; and c) the desired partial lengths are cut off from the continuous, stretched honeycomb band.
