A machine configured to produce stacks of folded pop-up wipes includes a holder, a first tension unit, a folding unit, and a control unit. The folding unit includes two or more folding rollers each including a hub including grippers to grip and release the material and infeed plates to feed the tissue to respective grippers of the other roller. Positions of the infeed plates are adjustable in relation to positions of the grippers Distances between the grippers and the infeed plates adapt a width of the produced stacks of wipes. The control unit is communicatively coupled to the first tension unit and the folding unit and includes a processor, and a memory. The memory contains instructions executable by the processor. The material is threaded along a path through the machine via the first tension unit and the folding unit. Executing the instructions causes the control unit to control the machine.
A machine configured to produce stacks of folded pop-up wipes from material, wherein the material is threaded along a path through the machine, the machine comprising:
A stack of folded pop-up wipes comprising continuous material in a length direction of the material and using perforations, wherein the stack of folded pop-up wipes uses the perforations to delimit the wipes in the length direction, wherein the material is folded in a direction orthogonal to the length direction in alternating directions at a distance to form a stack with a width and a length.
