Abstract
According to the invention, an apparatus is provided for feeding a continuous plastic film from a source of supply to a plastic film processing machine such as a plastic bag making machine and the like, which includes first and second take up rolls for taking up and rewinding the plastic film. First guide means is disposed at a position in the path for directing the plastic film from the source of supply to the first take up roll via the first guide means. Second guide means is disposed downstream of the first guide means in the path for directing the plastic film from the second take up roll to the processing machine via the second guide means. The plastic films can be sandwiched between and heat cut widthwise by first heat cutting means and first receiving means, whereby the plastic film from the source of supply is connected to the plastic film to the processing machine, while the plastic film to the first take up roll is connected to the plastic film from the second take up roll. The plastic film can be sandwiched between and heat cut widthwise by the second heat cutting means and the second receiving means, whereby the plastic film from the source of supply is connected to the plastic film to the first take up roll, while the plastic film from the second take up roll is connected to the plastic film to the processing machine.
