A method for providing rolls of material for use in sheet form, particularly aluminum for food uses, comprising a step of rewinding the material for use in sheet form in order to form a roll; the rewinding step is provided by winding the material for use in sheet form directly on a rewinding shaft, with the material for use in sheet form in contact with a cylindrical outer lateral surface of the rewinding shaft, which is actuated with a rotary motion about its longitudinal axis, so as to obtain a coreless roll.

A house wrapping device to connect to a wall of a building, the house wrapping device including a main body having an elongate shape, a wrap receiving rod perpendicularly disposed away from a first end of the main body with respect to a direction to receive a house wrap roll thereon and dispense a house wrap from the house wrap roll, and a wedge perpendicularly disposed away from a second end of the main body opposite to the first end with respect to the direction to removably connect the main body to the wall and prevent the main body from falling off the wall.

A reel take-up apparatus includes a frame, a drive mechanism, a hydraulic counterbalance system, and a pair of positioning actuators. The frame may be configured to receive a reel from one end. The drive mechanism is generally slidably mounted to the frame and configured to rotate the reel. The hydraulic counterbalance system is generally configured to counterbalance a weight of the drive mechanism to allow the drive mechanism to float freely on the frame. The pair of positioning actuators may be configured to move a pair of support rollers toward and away from each other so as to (i) lift the reel from a support surface, (ii) support the reel during rotation by the drive mechanism, and (iii) lower the reel to the support surface for removal from the frame.
