Method and device for producing a printed and embossed web

摘要

A method and device are disclosed for producing a printed and embossed multi-ply web (3) of tissue paper or nonwoven having a good visual appearance. A first web-shaped material (1) is embossed in a nip (6) between a first embossing roll (4) and a counter roll (5), thereby creating a set of embossments. A first ink with a first colour is applied to a first subset of said set of embossments of said first web-shaped material while the material still resides on said first embossing roll. Thereafter an adhesive is applied to a second subset of said set of embossments of said first web-shaped material (1) while the material still resides on said first embossing roll (4). After that, said first web-shaped material is combined with a second web-shaped material (2) to form a multi-ply web (3). There is also provided a printed and embossed multi-ply web (3).
