Abstract
A process for applying an adhesive band with one adhesive side to the narrow rim of an elongated workpiece, particularly a coathanger of corrugated paper, includes the following steps: removing a workpiece from a magazine; sorting the workpieces into corresponding compartments of a compartmented disk carousel that rotates on an axis; forward cyclical rotation of the filled compartmented disk carousel, such that the workpieces placed in the compartments, which are positioned one on top of the other, are transported to other processing stations; at the next processing station, pressing the adhesive band, which has one adhesive side, onto the narrow rims of the flattened workpieces, which project from the compartments of the carousel; at another processing station, cutting the adhesive band and pressing it to the lateral profile of the narrow rim; at another processing station, folding and pressing the projecting edges of the adhesive band against the workpiece, and ejecting the fully processed workpiece. A device for implementing the process is described.
