In a method and apparatus for calendering a creped web (52) in close proximity to a reel spool (56) and taking up resulting growth of the web, the reel spool (50) is rotated faster than calender rolls (56, 58) or creping cylinder (52), and an open draw is provided between the calender rolls (56, 58) and the reel spool 50. A straight-through threading path (Figure 6, not shown) from the creping cylinder (52) to the reel spool (50) is provided by retracting one of the calender rolls (58) and a rider roll (60) adjacent to the roll (38). <IMAGE> |
