Abstract
The invention relates to a method and an apparatus for strengthening a running non-woven web. For this purpose, the non-woven web is penetrated by a plurality of fluid streams. In order to create a surface structure, the fluid streams are generated by a movable nozzle beam, which is guided back and forth at a defined amplitude substantially transversely to the running direction of the non-woven web. In order to obtain enough flexibility and a sufficient volume in the non-woven web in spite of the strengthening effect, the amplitude for moving the fluid streams back and forth is selected in such a way according to the invention that the points of impact created in the non-woven web by adjacent fluid streams do not intersect an imaginary separating line in the running direction. To this avail, the amplitude of the back and forth movement of the nozzle beam is adjusted so as to be smaller than half the distance between two nozzle outlets disposed next to each other in the row.
