(54) Method and machine for cutting an adhesive tape in a plurality of narrow tapes and for the rewinding thereof


(57) The invention relates to a method for cutting a large adhesive tape into a plurality of smaller adhesive tapes, and for rewinding the latter on respective supporting spools: said smaller adhesive tapes, after having been cut and separated from one another, are deviated fan-like along a substantially common path and later realigned to parallel, mutually spaced-apart paths, before being rewound on respective spools, mounted side by side on a single rewinding mandrel. The invention also relates to a machine, wherein means (Ra, Rb, Rc, Rd, Re) are provided, downstream of means for cutting the large tape, for deviating said smaller tapes (1a, 1b, 1c, 1d, 1e) to fan paths, as well as means (R'a, R'b, R'd, R'c) to bring said smaller tapes back to parallel, mutually spaced-apart paths.
