A method for assembling diaper pants is disclosed. Each diaper pant may include a chassis and two side panels extending from the chassis. The side panels join a first waist region and a second waist region of the chassis. The method may include the steps of connecting first end regions of the side panels with a first waist region of the chassis, advancing the chassis in a machine direction, folding the chassis about its lateral axis, transferring the folded chassis to a drum comprising a first folding member and a second folding member, moving the first and second folding members toward each other and radially outward relative an outer surface of the drum to position second end regions of the side panels in contact with a second waist region of the chassis, and connecting second end regions of the side panels with the second waist region. |
