An apparatus for producing an easy-to-tear plastic film comprising a pattern roll rotatably supported by a pair of stationary frames, an anvil roll moving along a pair of movable frames, a first driving unit for rotating the movable frames, and second driving units each mounted to the movable frame to move the anvil roll up and down; high-hardness, fine particles projecting from a rolling surface of the pattern roll having such average height and maximum height as enabling the formation of unpenetrating fine pores in a plastic film; with the anvil roll inclined to the pattern roll in a horizontal plane by the operation of the first driving unit, large numbers of unpenetrating fine pores being formed transversely uniformly in the plastic film passing through a gap of both rolls.

An apparatus for producing a macroporous plastic film comprising a first roll rotatably supported by stationary frames; a second roll movable up and down along movable frames; a first driving means for rotating the movable frames; and second driving means mounted to the movable frames for moving the second roll up and down; one of the first and second rolls being a pattern roll having large numbers of high-hardness, fine particles on its rolling surface, and the other being an anvil roll; large numbers of fine pores being formed in the plastic film by the high-hardness, fine particles, in a state where the center axis of the second roll is inclined to the center axis of the first roll in a horizontal plane by the operation of the first driving means.

A high-moisture-permeability, microporous plastic film randomly having a lot of recesses having different opening diameters and depths, with clefts formed in the recesses, is produced by pressing a first pattern roll randomly having a lot of high-hardness, fine particles having sharp edges on a roll body surface to a flat-surface metal roll, to produce an anvil roll randomly having a lot of recesses on a metal roll surface; arranging a second pattern roll randomly having a lot of high-hardness, fine particles having sharp edges on a roll body surface oppositely to the anvil roll; and passing a plastic film through a gap between the second pattern roll and the anvil roll.

A method for checking the correct operation of a pre-cutting device in a plant for production of logs of paper material. The method includes realization and assembly of the pre-cutting device, with relative positioning and adjustment of said first and second element; activation of the pre-cutting device with the measurement of the vibrations emitted relating to the interaction between said first and said second element; storage of at least a value or of a set of values relative to the measurement of the vibrations corresponding to an optimal or reference operating configuration of the device; measuring, the values of the vibrations emitted by the interaction between said first and second element and comparison with the value or set of values related to the reference operating configuration, with the emission of a signal if there is a non-correspondence between the detected value and the reference value or set of reference values.
