Provided is an automatic coiled material switching device, which comprises a machine table (8), a left unwinding device (81), a right unwinding device (82) and a rotatory cutting device (83); wherein the machine table is provided with a left auxiliary roller (84), a right auxiliary roller (85) and a plurality of fixed rollers; the rotary cutting device comprises a bearing seat (1), a bearing (11) arranged on the bearing seat, a rotating main body (2) arranged on the bearing, a rotating mechanism for driving the rotating main body to rotate on the bearing seat, a turning mechanism for driving the bearing seat to turn around, and a driving mechanism; the rotating main body comprises an upper part (21) and a lower part (22); a gap (23) for allowing a material to pass through is formed between the upper part and the lower part; and the rotating body is provided with a pressing mechanism for compressing the material and a cutting mechanism for cutting the material. The automatic coiled material switching device implements the automatic switching of material belts of the left unwinding device and the right unwinding device by arranging the rotating main body, rotating mechanism, the turning mechanism, the driving mechanism, the pressing mechanism and the cutting mechanism.

A method for cutting and connecting two bands end to end and which are at a stop, namely a first band ensuring the feed, and a second replacement band, in an unrolling machine including a cutting and connecting device including two connection assemblies arranged symmetrically with respect to a cutting and connection plane is provided. Utilizing the unrolling machine the method includes preparation of the second band, then immobilization of the bands in the plane, of simultaneous and transverse cutting of the latter, of disengagement of the cut portions not to be connected, and of end-to-end connecting of the cut portions thereof to be connected. A cutting and connecting device and a machine enabling the implementation of the method is also provided.

The splicing device for splicing a trailing edge of a first web material to a leading edge of a second web material includes members defining a feed path of the web material. The device also includes a first cutting member and a second cutting member, cooperating with the first cutting member. One of the two cutting members is provided with a movement transverse to the feed path of the web material, to move the cutting member from an operating position, in which it is in front of the other cutting member, to an idle position, withdrawn with respect to the feed path of the web material.

An apparatus for splicing comprises a first web support surface configured to support a traveling web thereon and a second web support surface configured to support a replacement web thereon. The first traveling web travels in a machine direction. The splicing assembly also comprises a first web sensor and a web joiner. A controller is configured to determine, via the first web sensor, a position of a trailing end of the traveling web and to, in response to determining the position of the trailing end, cause a leading end of the replacement web to be positioned adjacently to the trailing end. The computer is also configured to control the web joiner to create a joint coupling the trailing end to the leading end.
