EXTRACTION ASSEMBLY OF A CORE FROM A LOG, CONVERTING LINE HAVING SAID ASSEMBLY AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING A CORELESS LOG

摘要

Disclosed herein is an extraction assembly for producing coreless logs. The extraction assembly includes a rectilinear transporter (20) of a log (11) wound about a disintegrable core (12), and a gripping device (30) for a portion of the core (12) projecting from the log (11), wherein the rectilinear transporter (20) has a transverse transport direction with respect to a log advancement direction of the log (11) along the converting line (100), and has an alternating transport direction back and forth in opposite directions, and the rectilinear transporter (20) contains a first portion for being received within the converting line (100), and a second portion for being placed outside the converting line (100), in which the second portion is aligned with respect to the first portion along the transverse transport direction. Also disclosed herein are a converting line containing the extraction assembly, and methods for producing coreless logs.
