A roll holder is for a label roll of linerless labels wound in a crosswise manner. The roll holder has: a horizontally arranged spindle, which is held by a stand on at least one side, and a rotatable roll mount, which is oriented in parallel with the spindle, and which is mounted on the spindle. The roll mount is mounted on the spindle in a linearly displaceable manner using at least one linear bearing.

An assembly comprises a device for producing a corrugated board web laminated on one side comprising a fluting device for fluting a first material web and a pressing device for pressing the glued corrugated web and a second material web against one another. The assembly comprises a first transverse position detecting device, upstream the fluting device, for detecting the first material web, a second transverse position detecting device, upstream the pressing device, for detecting the second material web and a signal processing unit, which is capable of actuating a unrolling device for unrolling the second material web so that in the device for producing a corrugated board web it is transversally displaced correspondingly.

A method and an apparatus for correcting a feeding distance of a strip or cutting, involves feeding the strip over the feeding distance in a feeding direction towards a cutting line that extends at an oblique cutting angle to the feeding direction; detecting a lateral position of a first longitudinal edge of the strip in a lateral direction perpendicular to the feeding direction; wherein, when the detected lateral position is offset over an offset distance in the lateral direction with respect to a reference position for the first longitudinal edge at the measuring line, and adjusting the feeding distance with a correction distance that is related to the offset distance in a ratio that is defined by the cutting angle.

The present invention is a method for selectively machine directionally stretching a predetermined section of a pre-combined web material of varying material width by running the web over stretching rolls operated at a speed differential

In an example of the disclosure, a first optical sensor positioned adjacent to a web path and having a first sensor beam is utilized to identify a first signal value as the first optical sensor detects an eye-mark as the web is moved along the web path. A second optical sensor positioned adjacent to the web path, downstream of the first optical sensor, and having a second sensor beam, is utilized to identify a second signal value as the second optical sensor detects the eye-mark. A lateral misalignment of the web is determined based upon the first signal value, the second signal value, and a lateral offset of the first sensor beam from the second sensor beam.

A meandering correction apparatus includes a transport mechanism, an orientation measurement part, a Young's modulus calculation part, a meandering prediction part and a meandering correction part. The transport mechanism transports an elongated strip-shaped base material in a longitudinal direction thereof along a transport path. The orientation measurement part measures fiber orientations of the base material in respective measurement regions on the transport path, the measurement regions being different in widthwise position from each other. The Young's modulus calculation part calculates Young's moduli of the base material for the respective measurement regions, based on the fiber orientations. The meandering prediction part predicts subsequent meandering of the base material, based on the Young's moduli, to output meandering prediction information. The meandering correction part corrects the widthwise position of the base material, based on the meandering prediction information. The meandering correction is made based on the fiber orientations of the base material. Thus, the widthwise position of the base material is corrected without depending on only edge sensors.

There is disclosed a method of manufacturing an adhesive tape (32), comprising: printing a print pattern (14) including at least one printed datum (15) onto a web; applying onto the web a plurality of transversely spaced adhesive stripes (16) using an adhesive stripe applicator; and controlling adhesive stripe application such that the adhesive stripes (16) are applied in register with the print pattern (14) by monitoring the transverse position of at least a part of at least one printed datum (15) and adjusting the relative transverse position between the adhesive stripe applicator and the web in response thereto. The method also comprises a tape slitting operation in which, using a tape slitting head (92), the web is slit into a plurality of adhesive tapes (32) which each have an adhesive stripe (16); and controlling the tape slitting such that the web is slit in register with the print pattern (14) by monitoring the transverse position of at least a part of at least one printed datum (15) and adjusting the relative transverse position between the tape slitting head (92) and the web in response thereto.

A foil transfer film cartridge includes a supply reel on which a foil film having a widthwise dimension of a first width is wound, and a supply shaft longer in a widthwise direction of the foil film than the first width. The supply shaft is configured to support the supply reel in a manner that allows the supply reel to move in the widthwise direction between a first position and a second position different from the first position.
