  • Publication number: 20140054407
    Abstract: The machine includes a first winding roller and a concave plate extending around the first winding roller. The first winding roller and the concave plate define a feed channel of the web material. Upstream of the concave plate there is arranged a moving member including a pinching surface cooperating with the first winding roller to pinch the web material against the first winding roller. The moving member is arranged and controlled to pinch the web material against the surface of the first winding roller and decelerate the web material between the moving member and the surface of the first winding roller, causing a leading edge to wind around itself to form a winding nucleus of a log.

  • Publication number: 20130333183
    Abstract: The device includes at least a first gripping member and a second gripping member, arranged and controlled so that they extract two winding spindle portions from opposite ends of a log in a longitudinal extraction direction parallel to the axis of the log. The first gripping member and a second gripping member are movable along a log advancing path and extract the two winding spindle portions as they advance along the log advancing path together with the log and the two winding spindle portions.

  • Patent number: 7942363
    Abstract: The rewinding machine comprises: a first winding roller (11) and a second winding roller (13) defining a nip (15) through which said cores are inserted and through which said web material (N) is fed; and at least one pair of motorized engaging members (57), to engage the ends of a winding core and transmit a rotational movement to the core during at least part of the winding cycle of each log. The engaging members and the first and second winding roller are produced and disposed so that the log being formed is in contact with said first and said second winding roller. Moreover, a third winding roller (17) is provided, defining a winding space with said first and said second winding roller, said third winding roller being movable to allow increase and completion of winding of each log in said winding space.
