Abstract

L'invention concerne un appareil (10, 110) et un procédé permettant de conditionner sous forme de rouleaux divers matériaux compressibles (14, 114). Cet appareil (10, 110) comprend un mandrin escamotable sur le plan radial (12, 112) destiné à faciliter le retrait du matériau conditionné sous forme de rouleau (14, 114) sans déchirer ni heurter le matériau (14, 114). Cet appareil (10, 110) comprend également un rouleau de compression (26, 122) qui agit conjointement avec le mandrin (12, 112) pour comprimer le matériau (14, 114) à mesure qu'il s'enroule autour du mandrin (12, 112). L'espacement séparant le rouleau de compression (26,122) et le mandrin (12,112) peut être modifié pour régler le taux de compression exercée sur le matériau enroulé (14, 114). Un dispositif de manipulation du rouleau (58, 182) facilite le retrait des rouleaux finis de l'appareil (10, 110). Dans un mode de réalisation, un distributeur de matériau de conditionnement (36, 152) alimente le matériau compressible introduit (14, 114) en matériau de conditionnement (38, 154) à mesure que alimente le matériau compressible s'enroule autour du mandrin (12, 112).
