Abstract
A winder apparatus for winding webs of material into rolls includes a conveyor, and a winding turret with a plurality of rotatably driven winding spindles thereon. The winding turret indexes the winding spindles relative to the apparatus conveyor, with each spindle moved to a transfer position wherein a web of material is transferred from the conveyor onto the spindle to initiate roll formation. A rotatably driven transfer brush assembly is positionable in operative association with the conveyor and the spindle in the winding position to facilitate efficient and consistent transfer of a web from the conveyor onto the spindle for roll formation.
