A METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING A DISPOSABLE EXCRETA MANAGEMENT DEVICE

摘要

A method of manufacturing a disposable exreta managment device comprising a liquid impermeable body facing sheet having an opening (13), a liquid impermeable garment facing sheet, and an adhesive flange (12) provided adjacent to the opening (13) for releasable attachment to the body of the wearer. The adhesive flange (12) comprises a substrate layer and an adhesive layer. The liquid impermeable body facing sheet has plural folds thereon. The plural folds comprises at least one lateral fold and at least a pair of longitudingal folds. The method comprising the steps of: combining a continuous liquid impermeable body facing sheet web and a discrete adhesive flange (12) to make a first continuous composite web at a first combining section; forming lateral fold on the continuous liquid imperemable body facing sheet web a first fold forming section, and then forming a pair of longitudinal folds on the continuous liquid impermeable body facing sheet web at a second fold forming section; combining the first continuous composite web and a continuous liquid impermeable garment facing sheet web to make a second continuous composite web at a second combining section, and cutting the second continuous composite web into the discrete disposable excreta management device.
