Abstract

Reel cutter and method for a substantially continuously winding-on of partial web rolls. The reel cutter may include a cutting section adapted for cutting a material web into a plurality of partial webs and a winding section adapted for winding the plurality of partial webs onto partial web rolls. The partial web rolls may be arranged such that neighboring partial web rolls are located in winding position groups positionally offset from one another. The winding section may include at least one additional and no more than twice the number of winding position groups necessary for winding-on of the partial web rolls. The method may include positionally offsetting at least a first and second winding position groups such that each winding position group includes a plurality of winding positions that are axially spaced apart, positionally offsetting at least a third winding position group, alternatingly guiding neighboring partial webs to the first and second winding position groups, and winding the partial webs into partial web rolls. The method may also include preparing the third winding position group to include winding positions that correspond to the first winding group, completing the winding on of the partial web rolls of the first winding group, and transferring the partial webs from the first winding group to the third winding group.
