Abstract:
1. A method for producing logs of paper, the method comprising: feeding a continuous paper web along a fixed path; transversely perforating the paper web such that the paper is subdivided into various lengths and detached by tearing; feeding tubes such that a preset number of sheets are wound onto said tube to form a log, said tubes being guided in a tube-guiding channel extending between a tube-feeding station and a log-forming station, said channel being delimited in part by a fixed guide and in part by a roller for feeding the paper; and applying glue within said channel such that the last sheet is glued to the log being formed and the paper web is glued to the next tube, said glue being applied upon two distinct regions of each tube such that a paper cutting line separates a last sheet of the log under formation from the first sheet of a subsequent log to be formed.
