A roll and a method for producing a roll which are capable of effectively preventing tunneling are provided. A roll includes a core having a tubular shape and a laminate wound around the core. The laminate includes a process film, a surface coat layer, a substrate layer, an adhesive layer, and a release liner, in this order, in a laminating direction. The process film is formed from at least one member selected from polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyolefins, and polyvinyl chloride (PVC). The surface coat layer is formed from a fluorine resin. The release liner is formed from polyethylene terephthalate (PET). The core is formed from an acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer resin (ABS) or polypropylene (PP).

Provided are a rubber composition capable of imparting a high tensile strength to a roller main body so as to be able to be used for equipment that allows paper to pass through at high speed, while maintaining high abrasion resistance of the roller main body and a favorable paper feeding performance of the paper feeding roller; and a paper feeding roller. There is provided a rubber composition contains: a rubber that includes a non-oil extended EPDM having an ethylene content of 55 to 72%; and more than 20 parts by mass and 30 parts by mass or less of a filler, and 2.5 parts by mass or more of a peroxide crosslinking agent per 100 parts by mass of the rubber, in which the filler contains 15 to 30 parts by mass of an amorphous silica per 100 parts by mass of the rubber.

A method of measuring properties of a moving cellulose, paper or board sheet. A first parameter of a first resonance caused by the moving sheet in a frequency range 1 GHz to 25 GHz of electromagnetic radiation is measured. A second parameter of an electromagnetic signal transmitted between at least a pair of transceiver parts of a transceiver sensor located on opposite sides of the moving sheet through the moving sheet is measured in a frequency range 25 GHz to 1000 GHz. A minimum difference between the frequency ranges related to the first parameter and the second parameter being at least 5 GHz. Both the dry stuff content and the weight of water per unit of area are determined on the basis of the first parameter, the second parameter and available information related to a distance travelled by the electromagnetic signal.

A method for bonding the tail of a convolutely wound log to the body is provided. The method comprises the use of a bonding material to bond the tail to the wound log. The bonding material may be applied to application sites arranged in a non-uniform pattern.

A sheet feeder especially designed for use in the food and pharmaceutical industries is constructed in a hygienic manner and with suitable materials to permit rapid and effective cleaning and sanitizing thereof. Flexible, liquid impermeable bellows are mounted to the feeder housings in surrounding relation to the apertures through which the machine's several rotary shafts enter the housings. The bellows support bearing isolators that not only seal the housings from fluid entry, but because the bellows can flex, they also permit shaft spacings to be adjusted to adapt the machine to sheets of differing thicknesses and to set infeed belt tension. The sheet feeder's product input hopper and its discharge conveyor are designed to be easily detachable for cleaning in a dipping mode.

An assembly for folding polymeric film for machines for forming pouches and the like includes a fixed frame for supporting a magazine for the polymeric film, an element for folding the film that arrives from the magazine, and at least one heat-sealing device for the stable coupling of juxtaposed portions of the folded film that arrives from the folding element. The folding element is mounted on a carriage, which can translate along a respective guide which is integral with the frame, along the sliding direction of the film, with a speed that is variable in intensity and sign. The at least one heat-sealing device acts on portions folded onto themselves of the film during a temporary stop thereof. The carriage retracts with respect to the sliding direction of the film for the entire duration of the temporary stop step provided for the heat-sealing of the film.

There is provided a method for cutting an adhesive film and an adhesive film that are novel and improved and capable of fabricating an adhesive film with a low glass transition point, high quality, and a width of less than 1 mm. According to an aspect of the present invention in order to achieve the above object, there is provided a method for cutting an adhesive film, the method including cutting, under a temperature environment of 40 to 10 C., an adhesive film that satisfies a condition of the following formula (1) and whose tack value per unit length under room temperature is 3N/cm or more.

y0.27x+11.4(1)

In the formula (1), x is a glass transition point ( C.) of the adhesive film, and y is a tack value per unit length (N/cm) under room temperature of the adhesive film.

Web-wound rolls with a web edge treatment by printable adhesive compositions and processes to make the same are provided. The web-wound rolls include a substrate web having at least two web edges. One or more quantities of adhesive are disposed and subsequent curing adjacent to one or both of the web edges. The substrate web is wound upon itself in multiple revolutions about a central core, and each revolution is held substantially separate from the next by the adhesive.

A roll includes a core having a tubular shape and a laminate wound around the core. The laminate includes a process film, a surface coat layer formed from a fluorine resin, a substrate layer, an adhesive layer, and a release liner formed from polyethylene terephthalate (PET) in this order in a laminating direction. The process film is formed from at least of polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyolefin, and polyvinyl chloride (PVC), and is thinner than the release liner.
