Abstract

A calendering apparatus is disclosed which includes means for replacing a desired take-up roller from a take-up roller train. Displaceable, bifurcated carrier means are disposed on the embossing means forming part of the calender apparatus, which carriers can accommodate individual take-up rollers. The rollers are then moved out of the train by such carriers. The embossing means are also displaceable into a position in a lifting mechanism which can be used to collect the roller from the carrier.
