Abstract
Differentially stretched plastic with a dyed border along one side suitable for shaded interlayers of laminated windshields moves in an arcuate path away from a frustoconical roll of a continuously operating differential web stretcher toward an intermittently operated web cutting machine, which tends to veer the web transversely every time it starts to pull a length of web into the cutting machine. The present invention realigns the arcuately shaped web between cutting operations when necessary to compensate for lateral veering of the arcuate plastic web from the arcuate path it takes so as to cause the web to enter the web cutting machine at a proper angle and orientation for cutting.
