The invention relates to a release liner removal apparatus, comprising at least one release liner removal device for removing at least one release liner from at least one adhesive piece arranged on a material web, at least one support body which supports the at least one release liner removal device, and at least one guide body which is arranged adjacent to the at least one release liner removal device at least during the removal of the at least one release liner and which serves for guiding the material web.

The invention relates to a plant having at least one material roll preparation arrangement for bringing a material roll carrying a material web to be drawn in into a defined initial situation, and having at least one material web working/processing arrangement, in particular material web dispensing arrangement, in particular material web unrolling arrangement, in particular material web splicing arrangement, which material web working/processing arrangement is capable, owing to the defined initial situation of the material roll, of receiving the material roll in automated fashion and preferably receiving the material web in automated fashion and/or preparing the material web in automated fashion.

An adhesive that comprises: (a) 35 to 55 wt. % of an elastomer component; (b) 20 to 45 wt. % of an adhesive resin component; and (c) 15 to 40 wt. % of a plasticizing component, wherein (c1) 8 to 35 wt. % of (c) is made of one or more plasticizing oils, and (c2) optionally up to 32 wt. % of (c) is made of one or more plasticizers that differ from plasticizing oils.

The invention relates to a material web drawing-in apparatus for drawing in a material web. The material web drawing-in apparatus comprises at least one material web holding device for holding the material web to be drawn in, and at least one guide for guiding the at least one material web holding device from a material web drawing-in point to a material web transfer point, and also at least one drawing-in drive which is in connection with the at least one material web holding device and which serves for displacing the at least one material web holding device along the at least one guide upon drawing in the material web to be drawn in in the direction of the material web transfer point.

An adhesive tape for the flying roll change of flat web material wound on rolls has a carrier having a leading side and a trailing side. An optically detectable means and an exposable self-adhesive compound are arranged on the leading side. A cleavable adhesive system is located on the trailing side. An inductively detectable means is arranged in the adhesive tape in a visually inconspicuous manner.

A splice tape is provided. The splice tape includes two internal support layers bonded at interface between opposing inner surfaces of the internal support layers. The support layers are formed utilizing a process and/or materials that ensure that the two internal support layers separate cleanly and consistently along the interface of the two internal support layers.

A screen splicing structure is provided. The screen splicing structure includes a substrate layer, a middle adhesive layer, and a surface layer. The substrate layer includes a first substrate and a second substrate. The second substrate is spliced with the first substrate, and a seam is formed at a splicing place. The surface layer and the middle adhesive layer are stacked. The surface layer covers the seam by bonding the middle adhesive layer and the substrate layer. The peeling strength of the surface layer and the substrate layer is greater than or equal to 1,000 gf/inch. A method for forming the screen splicing structure is also provided.

A splice tape is provided. The splice tape includes two internal support layers bonded at interface between opposing inner surfaces of the internal support layers. The support layers are formed utilizing a process and/or materials that ensure that the two internal support layers separate cleanly and consistently along the interface of the two internal support layers.

The present invention relates to a band-like joint tape for covering a butting portion formed by butting an end portion of a one packing film to an end portion of another packing film and connecting the respective end portions of these packing films to each other. The joint tape is comprised of a laminate film formed by adhering a joint layer to a support layer at a peelable state, and covered so as to face the joint portion to the butting portion and heat-sealed so that the joint layer is fused to the butting portion and the fused portion of the joint layer is peeled off from the support layer.
