Abstract: A tool set for manufacturing adhesive patches, by processing laminate web. The tool set includes a cutting tool having a cutting face lying in a cutting plane, and an embossing tool having a pressing face lying in a pressing plane, where the cutting plane and the pressing plane are parallel. The embossing tool is configured to press an edge area shape of the adhesive patch to be manufactured, and the cutting tool is configured to cut out the adhesive patch to be manufactured by cutting in edge area or outside the edge area. Furthermore, a method of manufacturing adhesive patches. The method essentially includes a feeding step, a pressing step and cutting step. Lastly an adhesive layering having a backing layer and an adhesive matrix layer. The backing layer having a larger size than the adhesive matrix layer.
