Abstract

The apparatus for the continuous winding of a web, in particular a paper web, onto a motor-driven roll core can also continue to be operated during the change of the roll core. A guiding drum serves as a support for the empty roll core during the change and is used for guiding the web. The guiding drum is continuously maintained at a distance remote from the winding. A pressing roll serves to press the web against the winding, a setting signal for a drive of a roll support carriage being derived from the position of the pressing roll, with the position changing based upon an increase in size of the winding.
