Abstract
A converting apparatus operates to control and transfer a folded absorbent article from a first carrier apparatus to a second carrier apparatus. The converting apparatus includes a transfer apparatus and a fluid supply member located adjacent to the transfer apparatus. The transfer apparatus includes a frame that is rotatable about a first axis of rotation and a transfer member that is rotatable about a second axis of rotation. The transfer member defines a receiving surface. The receiving surface includes a plurality of apertures that may operate in cooperation with the fluid supply member to remove any waist region folds in the absorbent article such that a substantially flat absorbent article may be transferred from the transfer apparatus to the second carrier apparatus.
