<p>There is disclosed a method of manufacturing an adhesive tape (32), comprising: printing a print pattern (14) including at least one printed datum (15) onto a web; applying onto the web a plurality of transversely spaced adhesive stripes (16) using an adhesive stripe applicator; and controlling adhesive stripe application such that the adhesive stripes (16) are applied in register with the print pattern (14) by monitoring the transverse position of at least a part of at least one printed datum (15) and adjusting the relative transverse position between the adhesive stripe applicator and the web in response thereto. The method also comprises a tape slitting operation in which, using a tape slitting head (92), the web is slit into a plurality of adhesive tapes (32) which each have an adhesive stripe (16); and controlling the tape slitting such that the web is slit in register with the print pattern (14) by monitoring the transverse position of at least a part of at least one printed datum (15) and adjusting the relative transverse position between the tape slitting head (92) and the web in response thereto.</p> |
