The turn-up system for this invention consists of two basic parts:1. A kraft substrate flat paper tape having a layer of water-activated adhesive on one side and a layer of pressure sensitive adhesive tape (PSAT) on the other side, which may or may not be protected by a releasable liner. The tape is approximately one to four inches in width. The tape is applied onto the outside of an empty reel spool (with or without a removable core) before the spool has been placed in the primary arms of the reel using the PSAT side to adhere the tape to the spool thus exposing the water-activated side of the tape to the ambient. The tape is to be applied in a single or multiple spiral pattern covering all or most of the length of the spool. After the application of the tape the reel spool should be loaded into the primary arms and moved into place as usual practice dictates. 2. Nozzles for supplying moisture to the tape wrapped reel spool before it is in the turn-up position (nip). This could employ a single or plurality of atomizing water/air or water/steam nozzles that produce a volume of water droplets suspended in an airflow that can be introduced into the boundary layer of air that is moving at synchronous speed with the upper surface of the paper web. Application of a moisture field into the web boundary layer on the top of the web insures that the moisture makes its destination at the nip and is applied directly to the empty reel spool and the water-activated adhesive it is carrying. When enough moisture is applied to the water-activated adhesive, the web will attach to the empty reel spool and simultaneously detach from the full paper roll thus producing a turn-up. Timing for application of the water spray can be controlled automatically with respect to position and/or rotational speed of the empty reel spool. Spray duration dwell, water/air mixture and velocity can be tightly controlled and easily adjusted. Steam or hot water can also be used if desired.
