The machine (1) comprises: —an unwinding section (3) for unwinding parent reels (Ba, Bb) of web material (N; S); —at least one winding station (15) comprising a winding device (25) and further comprising: guide members for guiding the strip (S) of web material, configured to form at least a loop of web material between a guide roller (43) and a log (B); and a cutting device (61) for transversally cutting the strip (S) of web material in an intermediate position between the log (B) and the guide roller (43), thus generating a tail edge, remaining on the log (B) being formed, and a leading edge, remaining fastened to the guide roller (43).

Provided is a medium supply device including a spindle that supports a medium having a roll shape, a supplying portion that supplies the medium supported by the spindle toward outside, a plurality of support rollers that support the medium in positions between the spindle and the supplying portion, a moving roller that, in a contact position between the support rollers, is capable of coming into contact with a bridging medium extending across the support rollers in a state where a load is applied to the bridging medium and that is capable of moving from the contact position to a non-contact position of non-contact with the bridging medium, and a moving mechanism configured to move the moving roller from the contact position to the non-contact position.

The invention relates to a method for cross-linking a cross-linkable adhesive composition without solvent on a film, comprising driving and/or guiding said film in a climatic chamber, by a Caroll-type drive or guide. The invention also relates to a climatic chamber comprising a Caroll-type drive or guide. The invention also relates to a process for manufacturing a self-adhesive article comprising at least a substrate and an adhesive layer, said process comprising the steps of: a) conditioning an adhesive composition at a temperature of between 20 and 160 C.; b) coating the adhesive composition b1) onto at least a part of the substrate or b2) onto a non-sticking support; submitting the article obtained at step b) to a controlled atmosphere. The invention also relates to self-adhesive articles having high coating weights and to processes for bonding them.
