<p>The web (10) is fed through a first nip point formed by a first introducer roll (30) and a second cushioned anvil roll (54), and the web is subsequently fed through a second nip point formed by the second anvil roll and the new core (26). An electrostatic charging bar (50) charges the web to adhere it to the second anvil roll (54). A rotatable cutting knife (42) which is cooperatively engageable with the anvil roll cuts the web at a point downstream from the charging bar but upstream from the new core thereby forming a tail (18) and a new leading edge (16). The new leading edge has been electrostatically charged, it remains stuck to the cushioned anvil roll until it reaches the new core. At that point, adhesive (28) on the new core peels the new leading edge of the web off of the cushioned anvil roll and affixes it onto the new core.</p> |
