Transfer roller for transferring a formatted adhesive application

Abstract

A transfer roller serves to transfer a formatted adhesive application from an adhesive roller of an adhesive applicator to a continuously conveyed web, preferably a paper web. To adapt the transfer roller quickly and simply to the different formats of glue applications, the peripheral surface of the transfer roller is provided with radially moveable tappets or stamps, which lie closely side by side and which can be moved between an inserted inactive position and an extended active position, in a specified grid.
