A ROTATABLE TIRE BUILDING APPARATUS

摘要

A process is disclosed for high speed automatic production of ply stock in which tire cord fabric on a first conveyor is cut by a bias cutter to form panels which are spliced at the side of said conveyor and then pulled transversely onto a second conveyor. During each cycle a cut panel is advanced by the first conveyor to a stationary transfer position where its uncut side portion is overlapped by the trailing side portion of an adjacent panel in a stationary splicing position on the second conveyor.
