Apparatus for the production of inner assemblies and method thereof

Abstract

An apparatus for the production of inner assemblies, including a feeding unit configured to feed at least one web along a feed path, a movable frame, movable between a proximal position and a distal position, the proximal position being closer to the feeding unit than the distal position, at least one winding device mounted on the movable frame and configured to wind the at least one web around a winding support to form an inner assembly, a holding member mounted on the movable frame, movable between a holding configuration, wherein the holding member is configured to hold the inner assembly wound on the winding support, and a disengagement configuration wherein the holding member is configured not to hold the inner assembly wound on the winding support, an extraction mechanism configured to extract the winding support from the inner assembly at least partially while the holding member holds the inner assembly.
