  • Turn-up method and apparatus for lightweight grades of paper
    Patent number: 6547178
    Abstract: The turn-up system for this invention consists of two basic parts: 1. A kraft substrate flat paper tape having a layer of water-activated adhesive on one side and a layer of pressure sensitive adhesive tape (PSAT) on the other side, which may or may not be protected by a releasable liner. The tape is approximately one to four inches in width. The tape is applied onto the outside of an empty reel spool (with or without a removable core) before the spool has been placed in the primary arms of the reel using the PSAT side to adhere the tape to the spool thus exposing the water-activated side of the tape to the ambient. The tape is to be applied in a single or multiple spiral pattern covering all or most of the length of the spool. After the application of the tape the reel spool should be loaded into the primary arms and moved into place as usual practice dictates. 2. Nozzles for supplying moisture to the tape wrapped reel spool before it is in the turn-up position (nip).
