Abstract

In order that a roll which is at least as highly compacted as that according to EP No. 0 031 286 Al may be obtainable trouble-free and with less expenditure of material and labor in the production of reelless rolls by laying the netting in zigzag formation and rolling it up by means of inclined guide surfaces followed by winding portions which constitute a receiver of variable shape for the roll and are displaceable in their longitudinal direction, it is proposed that the winding operation should be carried out intermittently; the partially completed roll should be rolled over the adjoining netting which is laid in zigzag formation, and the roll, having been thereby enlarged, should be transported back to what was its starting point before this rolling movement, and these procedures should be repeated cyclically. For this purpose, a winding driving device is provided to shorten the winding portions for the purpose of rolling up the netting, several transport portions (88) also adjoining the guide surfaces (40) are provided for returning the roll to its starting position, and a transport driving device is provided for transporting the roll with simultaneous lengthening of the winding portions.
