ABSTRACT:
Individual strips of material, such as copper conductors, are laminated between continuously moving webs of backing material such as mylar, in a plurality of parallel lanes extending longitudinally of the webs, by apparatus which selectively controls the length of strip material in each lane to produce a product such as a wiring harness. The apparatus includes a pressing station through which the mylar webs are continuously moved by a pair of opposed driven rollers. The strips of material are fed to the pressing station by selectively operable feeding devices, one for each lane, through selectively operable cut-off devices, one for each lane, and through a severing device selectively operable to simultaneously sever any strips in all lanes. Control means, responsive to the length of backing web moving through the apparatus, is operable to selectively regulate the operation of the feeding, cut-off and severing devices so that a desired length, or plurality of lengths, of conductor strip is applied to each lane for a given length of backing web. Each conductor strip is fed to the apparatus from an individual reel driven by a motor whose speed is controlled by the tension in the strip.
