Abstract

A rolling device for rolling up a sheet onto roll formers or spools: a roll former is inserted between and supported on two supporting rollers and a sheet is wound on it; the finished wound roll on its roll former is lifted off one of the supporting rollers looping the sheet, and the slack loop section is stapled to the next roll former; the sheet is cut off at the new roll former.
