Method and apparatus for making pads |
摘要 |
The invention is directed to method and apparatus for making pads, such as interlabial pads. Fibers made of different materials are blended and formed into a continuous blended-fiber web. The blended-fiber web is fed to a pad-making apparatus. A first cutting apparatus at a first cutting station cuts the blended-fiber web as it is fed through a first cutting nip to form individual fiber bodies in the web arranged in predetermined positions relative to one another. A first rotatable vacuum transfer cylinder conveys the fiber bodies from the first cutting station toward a sealing apparatus while maintaining the bodies in their predetermined positions relative to one another. The sealing apparatus laminates a cover web with the fiber bodies at a sealing nip to form a sealed laminated web. A second cutting apparatus at a second cutting station cuts the sealed laminated web to form pads. Folding apparatus may be provided for folding each pad along a major axis thereof.
