Abstract (en)
An apparatus and method for web butt-splicing at high speeds has a series of vacuum drums (20,21,32,33,34,35) which sequentially supports an expiring web (47) and a fresh web (48). Cutting members (40,42) are provided on each drum (20,21) which cooperate with the movement of the drums into proximity for cutting the webs forming just-cut ends of both the fresh and expiring webs. The just-cut ends of the web, once in abutting relations, are then transferred to a splicing means and splice tape (43,44) is applied across a side of the abutting ends thereby forming a spliced web. <IMAGE>
