Abstract

Eine mehrfache Vernadelung bei wechselseitiger Warenbahnführung ist bekannt. Entweder übernimmt die Tragefunktion ein Endlosband und/oder eine Trommel, die so angeordnet sind, daß die Faserbahn mäanderförmig mit jeweils der anderen Seite den Düsenbalken zugeordnet werden kann. Die Übergabe von der einen zur anderen Transportvorrichtung erfolgt bei dem Verfahren nach der Anmeldung durch ständige, formschlüssige und dehnungsfreie Unterstützung der gegen Verzug empfindlichen Faserbahn. Dies gilt für eine Vernadelung auf einer Trommel oder auch bei Vernadelung auf Endlosbändern.

Figure 00000001
Multiple needling with reciprocal web guidance is known. Either the carrying function takes over an endless belt and / or a drum, which are arranged in such a way that the fiber web can be meandered with the other side of the nozzle bars. The transfer from one to the other transport device takes place in the process after the registration by constant, positive and stretch-free support of the fiber web, which is sensitive to warping. This applies to needling on a drum or also with needling on endless belts.
