Abstract: The process relates to the continuous production of a web of a composite material, comprising: providing a web of honeycomb material; providing at least one web of face sheet material having a corrugated medium with a first face covered with a linerboard and an exposed second face, including unrolling the face sheet material from a roll; carrying said web of honeycomb material and said at least one web of face sheet material along a production line; and adhesively applying the exposed second face of the at least one web of face sheet material to one face of said honeycomb material while said honeycomb material is being conveyed through the production line and maintained in an expanded state.

Abstract: An apparatus for a continuous production of a web of a composite material includes at least one honeycomb material carrier for moving a web of honeycomb material along the apparatus; at least one face sheet material carrier for moving at least one web of a face sheet material along the apparatus, the face sheet material having a corrugated medium with a linerboard on at least one face thereof; and at least one laminator for adhesively applying the at least one web of the face sheet material to a face of the web of honeycomb material in an expanded state.
