  • Machine for winding a fibrous mat on itself
    Patent number: 6123284
    Abstract: A machine winds a fibrous mat on itself after compressing it. The winding machine has two bands which each embrace about half the circumference of the roll being formed. The machine also includes a plate intended to keep the mat compressed. This plate and, if appropriate, a device for causing compression of the mat are movable and advance downstream as the fibrous mat is wound. In a variation, the compression device is fixed and the plate is lengthened.

  • Roll of compressed fibrous mat, method and device for obtaining it
    Patent number: 5425512
    Abstract: A winder intended for compressing a fibrous mat 4 rolls the mat up on itself and wraps it so as to store it and transport it with a reduced bulk. The machine has two belts 1, 2 supported by two fixed rollers 9, 13 and two mobile rollers 14, 15. The tension of the belts and the position of the mobile rollers are managed by a computer. The winding speed and the admissible compression ratio without damaging the fibrous mat are better than with the winder of the prior art.
