Problems solved by technology
Existing modular concepts are actually too cumbersome and expensive due to the innovation platform as well as slow labor aspects due to the time (and associated high cost) of performing the non-process / transformation-based backbone manufacturing
Another difficulty with current modular concepts is that the process transformations may not be oriented and positioned in a manner that is most process efficient and space efficient to maintain the desired modularity
And the backbone (racks, drive assemblies, panels, guards, etc.) and ancillary equipment for each module are expensive, with a typical 1.0m module costing over $100,000 even before the load cell is operational

[0053] definition
[0054] The following explanations of terms are useful for understanding the present disclosure.
[0055] As used herein, the term "absorbent article" includes disposable articles such as sanitary napkins, pantiliners, tampons, interlabial devices, wound dressings or bandages, diapers, adult incontinence products, wipes, and the like. In addition, absorbent members produced by the methods and apparatus disclosed herein are also applicable to other webs such as scouring pads, dry mop pads (such as pad) etc. At least some of such absorbent articles are intended to absorb bodily fluids, such as menses or blood, vaginal secretions, urine, and feces. The wipes may be used to absorb bodily fluids, or may be used for other purposes, such as for cleaning surfaces. The various absorbent articles described above will generally comprise a liquid-permeable topsheet, a liquid-impermeable backsheet joined to the topsheet, and an absorbent core positioned between the...

Abstract
The present disclosure relates to modular unit operations designed for a flexible mount converter and methods for manufacturing and / or assembling various components of absorbent articles. The modular unit operation comprises a modular frame comprising a transformation portion. A drive portion is joined to the drive side of the modular frame, wherein the drive portion is joined without belts and pulleys. The modular unit operations are preferably standardized, configurable, re-usable, re-configurable, and stackable.
Description
technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to modular unit operations designed for mobile mount converting machines and methods for manufacturing and / or assembling various components of absorbent articles. The mobile mount converting machine offers improved flexibility, adaptability and reconfigurability compared to current converting lines Background technique [0002] Various types of articles, such as sanitary napkins, panty liners, incontinence products, diapers, and other absorbent articles. For example, in some processes advancing webs of material are combined with other advancing webs of material. In other examples, individual components created from advancing webs of material are combined with advancing webs of material, which in turn are combined with other advancing webs of material. In some cases, individual components produced by advancing web or webs are combined with other individual components produced by other advancing web or webs. Web materia...
