Shape-stable, perforated recesses are produced in a web (12) of casing material and an adjacent web (14) of absorbent material by perforating the web (12) of the casing material by a large number of discrete cuts on a matrix cylinder (16), and the web (14) of absorbent material comprised of separate lengths (30) is combined with the perforated web (12) of casing material and is pressed partially together with the web (12) of casing material into hollows or depressions (34, 36) in the matrix cylinder (16). The matrix cylinder (16) includes a large number of circumferential rows of raised plateaus (26) which are separated in the circumferential direction. The apparatus also includes a cutting cylinder (18) which coacts with the matrix cylinder (16), and a press cylinder (20). Alternatively webs (12) and (14) may be first combined prior to the perforation and deformation steps. <IMAGE> |
