Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2021250489A1] A method for making multisegment articles comprising the steps of: preparing at least one succession of first segments (1), one succession of second segments (2) and one succession of third segments (3), wherein the first, second and third segments (1, 2, 3) are segments of different kinds; assembling the first, second and third segments (1, 2, 3) to make an alternating succession of first and second units (60, 70) advancing transversely to the longitudinal axis of the segments (1, 2, 3) and wherein the first units (60) comprise at least a first and a second segment (1, 2) and the second units (70) comprise at least a third segment (3); assembling the units (60, 70) in a single forming beam (80) to form a single continuous rod (100) defined by a predetermined sequence of segments (1, 2, 3) of different kinds. The step of assembling the segments (1, 2, 3) of different kinds to make an alternating succession of first and second units (60, 70) is carried out in such a way that the first and second segments (1, 2) form part only of the first units (60) and the third segments (3) form part only of the second units (70).
