Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé de fabrication d'un article à capacité d'absorption d'eau, au moyen duquel des particules polymères à haute capacité d'absorption d'eau ne seront pas distribuées localement de façon inégale. Dans une étape de fabrication d'une sangle composite (137) qui est un corps continu de l'article à capacité d'absorption d'eau ayant une première section dans laquelle des particules polymères à haute capacité d'absorption d'eau (4) sont interposées entre deux morceaux de feuille superposés, et une seconde section qui entoure la première section, l'angle entre un premier rouleau de guidage (161) qui est situé sur le côté amont dans un sens machine (MD) parmi des rouleaux de guidage pour permettre à la sangle composite (137) de se déplacer dans le sens machine (MD) et un second rouleau de guidage (162) qui est adjacent au premier rouleau de guidage (161) sur le côté aval dans le sens machine (MD) est amené à varier à l'intérieur d'une plage de 30-180 ° par rapport à l'orientation du sens de déplacement de la sangle composite (137), l'orientation du sens de déplacement de la sangle composite (137) étant dirigée vers le premier rouleau de guidage (161).
