A sheet transport device includes: a curved transport path for a sheet; and multiple endless belt pairs arranged along the transport path and having transport surfaces that are in contact with each other.

A winding machine for web-type materials, in particular film materials, comprises a feeding device and at least one winding shaft which is capable of being driven and designed to receive a winding core for the winding of the web-type film material, wherein the winding machine is allocated a system for regulating and/or reducing an electrostatic charge of the web-type material during the winding process.

A ground thawing hose cleaning reel guide assembly cleans a ground thawing hose as the hose is reeled back onto a reel within a vehicle. The assembly includes a hose guide coupled to a frame such that the hose guide is movable between opposite ends of the frame. The hose guide has an interior edge defining an aperture extending through the hose guide. A sheet is coupled to the hose guide extending over the aperture. A channel extends into the sheet. The channel is configured to receive a hose within the channel whereby the sheet is configured to scrape debris from the hose as the hose is moved through the hose guide.

A method of cooling an offshore reel with multiple layers of umbilical with heat generating electrical current flowing through internal wires by supplying a coolant through a wrap between the layers of the umbilical.

A device and a method for processing a base paper roll and a method for manufacturing a corrugated cardboard sheet include a winding device that winds corrugated cardboard base paper drawn out by rotating a base paper roll, a paper leading edge detection unit that detects a leading edge of the corrugated cardboard base paper wound by the winding device, a taping device that fixes the leading edge of the wound corrugated cardboard base paper to an outer peripheral face of the base paper roll with adhesive tape, and a control unit that controls a rotation speed of the base paper roll based on an arrival direction of the leading edge of the corrugated cardboard base paper with respect to the taping device on the outer peripheral face of the base paper roll when the paper leading edge detection unit detects the leading edge of the corrugated cardboard base paper, and activates the taping device after controlling the rotation speed of the base paper roll.
