Abstract

A winding group for winding paper around a core to make a log comprising in an upstream position, means for transporting and introducing the core into a channel defined at the top by an upper winding roller, supplied from above with the paper directed towards the channel, and at the bottom by a cradle member associated downstream with a lower winding roller, the winding group comprising a third oscillating roller arranged above the lower winding roller, the three rollers cooperating downstream of the channel to wind the paper around the core to make the log, further being provided cyclic means for tearing the paper moving forward on the upper winding roller to identify a final edge and an initial edge as well as means to cause the initial edge to wind on the core introduced into the channel, the cyclic means for tearing the paper comprising a rod member rotating around a pin and provided with a head for cyclic cooperation with the upper winding roller for tearing the paper, wherein the head at least in proximity to the upper winding roller has a greater peripheral speed with respect to that of the upper winding roller to tear the paper upstream of the head.
