Abstract: Method and arrangement for changing the direction of travel of a reel being moved by a incoming conveyor (12), for transfer to the following conveyor, in which method the reel is first brought to a turntable and the direction of travel of the reel is changed by turning the turntable. After turning, the reel is removed to a receiving conveyor. In order for the turntable to be able to turn reels, the width of which is greater than the diameter of the turntable, the reel is lifted on the turntable from the level of the incoming and receiving conveyors, for the duration of the turning.

Abstract: In this publication it is described a method and an arrangement for moving parent reels (1) between at least two handling stations with the aid of a parent reel cart (2, 3), wherein at least one of the stations a parent reel (1) is carried on carrier rails (15). At the first handling station, the parent reel is transferred to the parent reel cart (2, 3), the parent reel (1) is locked to the cart (2, 3), and the parent reel (1) is moved to the next handling station. The parent reel (1) is transferred to the next station and the parent reel (1) locking is released. According to the invention the parent reel is moved between the station and the cart by means of transfer carriages (8), which grip the ends of the parent reel and move independently over the junction between the carrier rails (15) of the station and the parent reel carts's means (13, 14) for carrying parent reels.

Abstract: Method of and apparatus for threading of a wrapper end (31) from a wrapper roll (3) to a nip between wrapper proportioning drawing rolls (11, 15) in a wrapping station for wrapping paper rolls, board rolls and pulp rolls, in which the prepared wrapped roll (3) is rotated in a use station in the direction opposite to the wrapper feeding direction in such way that the wrapper end (31) falls on a wrapper feeding table (10). The wrapper end (31) that has fallen on the wrapper feeding table (10) is indicated and the rotating motion or the wrapper roll is stopped when the wrapper end (31) has been detected. Now the roll (3) is rotated in the wrapper feeding direction, until the wrapper end (31) passes an indicator placed after the drawings rolls.
