  • Publication number: 20030000989
    Abstract: A feeding system for difficult web and sheet materials, such as bubble wrap. A drive roller having a high friction surface is spaced over a flexible platen having a low friction transport surface. The gap between the platen and the drive roller is adjustable, and the drive roller is driven to advance web and sheet materials between the drive roller and the transport surface. The transport surface has a very low coefficient of static friction, and the surface of the drive roller has a very high coefficient of static friction, with the coefficients of friction differing by at least 0.5.
