Adhesive tape for flying splices of flat web materials, in particular flat web materials with nonpolar surfaces, said adhesive tape at least comprising an upper self-adhesive compound layer, an inner adhesive tape area adapted as a flat predetermined breaking point, and a lower self-adhesive compound on the underside of the inner adhesive tape area, wherein a natural rubber adhesive compound is used as the self-adhesive compound for at least the upper self-adhesive compound layer, as well as methods for flying splices of flat web material wound onto rolls, in particular with nonpolar surfaces, using a corresponding adhesive tape.

A recording apparatus includes a printing unit that performs a recording on a sheet, a third sheet feed unit that mounts a roll body on which the sheet is wound in a roll shape, unwinds the sheet from the roll body, and supplies the sheet to the printing unit, and a pressing portion that presses the roll body mounted on the third sheet feed unit, in which the pressing portion presses the mounted roll body in a direction opposite to a direction of taking out the roll body from the third sheet feed unit.

A method and device for carrying out a reel splice to avoid the fluttering of tails makes it possible to allow the tail to also adhere across its entire length, in particular on a web with high mechanical strength. When using a fluid-repelling substrate, an adhesive-free liquid is applied to a new roll and/or to at least a portion of the side of the tail facing the web. The method and device can be used in reel splicers which process fluid-repellent substrates, such as for example plastic films, metal films or laminated laminates, so that a sticking out or fluttering of the tail is avoided.

A reeling shaft transfer rail system has two parallel substantially horizontal or slightly sloped rails for supporting the ends (25) of a reeling shaft (20). Hoses are arranged on each of the transfer rails (15) and filled or drained to move and hold the reeling shaft (20). In a method of transferring reeling shafts on transfer rails, the reeling shafts (20) are transferred on two parallel, substantially horizontal or slightly downstream of a main transfer direction inclined transfer rails (15) for supporting each of the supporting ends (25) of a reeling shaft (20). The reeling shafts (20) are transferred or positioned in the reeling shaft transfer rail system (10) by pressurizing hoses (17) arranged on each of the transfer rails. The hoses are arranged so fluid added to or withdrawn from the hoses pushes or holds the reeling shaft (20) on the transfer rails (15).

The invention relates to an adhesive piece for the adhesive connection of material webs. The adhesive piece comprises an adhesive compound carrier which bears adhesive compound on two opposite sides, and at least one release liner which originally covers, at least in certain regions, the adhesive compound carrier and also the adhesive compound present there, protrudes at least in certain regions beyond the adhesive compound carrier, and is removable by a release liner removal apparatus.

A roll sheet with a continuous sheet wound in a roll form is rotated in a forward direction to supply the sheet to a printing unit. A sensor whose output is changed in accordance with a distance between the sensor and the sheet is used. A rotation direction of the roll sheet is switched from an opposite direction to the forward direction on the basis of the output of the sensor during rotation of the roll sheet in the opposite direction.

The invention relates to a splicer assembly for splicing material webs. The splicer assembly comprises a first dispensing device for dispensing a finite first material web, a second dispensing device for dispensing a finite second material web, a connecting device for connecting the finite first material web and the finite second material web so as to form an endless material web, and a material web threading assistance assembly for assisted threading of the finite first material web or of the finite second material web into the splicer assembly in a threading procedure. The material web threading assistance device comprises at least one conveying installation for conveying the finite material web to be threaded in a threading direction in the threading procedure, and a conveying installation drive installation for driving the at least one conveying installation in the threading procedure.
