<p>An embossing device for embossing a single-ply or multi-ply web of tissue paper comprises a first steel roll (12) with embossing protuberances (24, 26) on its peripheral surface and a second roll (14) with a yielding layer (32) on its peripheral surface. The second roll cooperates with the steel roll (12) so as to form an embossing nip (20) therewith. The steel roll (12) and the second roll (14) run in synchronisation. The second roll (14) has individual zones (30) on its peripheral surface with a higher overall thickness and/or different material characteristics of the yielding layer (32; 32, 34) compared to that of the remaining peripheral surface. These individual zones (30) are opposed in the embossing nip (20) to embossing protuberances of the steel roll (12).</p> |
