Abstract

La présente invention concerne un procédé pour déposer une bande de matière souple (2) pour former plusieurs couches de matière superposées, ainsi qu'un dispositif pour mettre en oeuvre le procédé. Selon l'invention, la bande de matière est amené à un premier emplacement de dépôt et effectue un mouvement de va-et-vient pour passer à travers une première soufflerie dans un premier sens de dépôt jusqu'à une extrémité de l'emplacement de dépôt et à travers une deuxième soufflerie dans un deuxième sens de dépôt jusqu'à une extrémité opposée (17.1, 17.2) de l'emplacement de dépôt. Les souffleries sont selon l'invention produites par deux dispositifs de soufflage (6.1, 6.2) comportant plusieurs buses d'air (7.1, 7.6, 8.1, 8.6) qui sont activées en alternance. Pour permettre le dépôt de la bande de matière (2) sur une longueur de dépôt plus importante, l'une des souffleries est selon l'invention matérialisée par plusieurs buses d'air activées successivement qui réalisent un soufflage dans l'un des sens de dépôt. A cet effet, plusieurs buses d'air sont réparties en longueur dans le sens de dépôt.
