<p>A three-dimensional sail of one piece construction is made of a rotating roll (10) having a deformable outer surface. The roll (10) is divided into a large number of segments (13), extending across the width of the roll (10), with the convex profile of each segment (13) being adjustable. A sail is made on the roll (10) on a continuous basis by applying a first layer of film (12), deforming the film on the roll (10), applying adhesive with a spray head (30) and reinforcing yarns with application stations (32, 34), and applying a second layer of film (40) to form a three-dimensional laminate.</p> |
