  • This paper web 22 is fed to the gap formed by the folding knife cylinder 18 and knife cylinder 19 from a folding former (not shown) via a pair of pulling and guiding rollers 23.
  • the ratio of the speeds of the knife cylinder 19 to the folding knife cylinder 18 is 3: 2, and their relative phase is set such that a cutting knife 21 cuts the paper web 22 shortly before a strip of pin needles 05 of the folding knife cylinder 18.
  • the resulting leading end of the paper web 22 is impaled by the puncture needles 05 and is further conveyed on its surface as the folding knife cylinder 18 rotates clockwise in FIG. 3.
