The aim of the invention is to shape a flat web material (12) into a constant three-dimensional structure with a plurality of folds along differently oriented folding lines and with elevations and depressions. This is achieved in that the flat web material is inserted between a lower holding die (20b) and an upper holding die (20a), which are largely flat, consist of a flat material, and have pre-shaped bending lines that lie over one another in a precise manner when lying against the flat web material. A lower (30b) and an upper molding die (30a) are then guided thereto and brought into position, said molding dies consisting of a flat material with specified folding lines which oppose one another in a precise manner. The molding dies (30a, 30b) have a shape corresponding to the three-dimensional structure to be produced, and the molding die folding lines oriented towards the holding dies or pointing towards the holding dies match the bending lines of the holding dies, wherein the folding lines can lie against the holding dies.

Disclosed are lagging materials for use on a driven cylindrical pulley or drum for an industrial machine. A lagging material can comprise a seaming element along the cross-machine direction (CD) of each of the opposing ends of the lagging material for forming a seam for seaming opposing ends of a lagging material when brought together. A lagging material can also comprise coatings that increase the Coefficient of Friction of a lagging material when the lagging material is installed onto the drum such that no additional adhesive is required to keep the lagging on the drum circumference when in operation. Also described is an apparatus for installing an on machine seamable lagging including at least two opposed elongate members, such that when the elongate members are drawn together, the lagging material is stretched into a seamable position to be installed on the drum.
