Abstract: Web printing apparatus having an impression roll and method of operating the apparatus for printing webs having different characteristics, such as different thickness and/or different modulus of elasticity, in which the speed of the impression roll is adjusted in accordance with the said characteristics and the tension to which the web is subjected in the printing operation to feed forward webs of different characteristics at different speeds for precision in impression length.
Abstract: A rotary perforator having a rotary anvil roll carrying one or two anvils cooperable with a fixed perforating blade edge for forming lines of perforations at spaced intervals along a continous web fed between the anvil roll and the blade edge, with provision for feeding the web and driving the anvil roll at different speeds, and for positioning the anvil roll at different skew angles relative to a plane transverse to the path of the web at right angles to the edges of the web so that the lines of perforations extend at right angles to the edges of the web, and with provision for forming the perforations in each line progressively across the web.
