A tail cutter apparatus is disclosed for cutting a tail from a web extending through a single tier dryer section. The apparatus includes a dryer of the drying section and a felt extending contiguously with the web around the dryer, the web being disposed between the felt and the dryer for drying the web. The further dryer is disposed downstream relative to the dryer and the felt and web extend contiguously around the further dryer with the web being disposed between the felt and the further dryer for further drying the web. A felt roll is disposed downstream relative to the dryer and upstream relative to the further dryer for guiding the felt during movement of the felt between the dryer and the further dryer. A guide roll is disposed downstream relative to the dryer and upstream relative to the further dryer for guiding the web during movement of the web away from the towards the felt roll such that a first and second open draw of the web are defined between the felt roll and the guide roll. A tail cutter is disposed adjacent to one of the open draws for cutting the tail from the web. |
