Products: Lap Splicers

A taped overlap, or "lap," splice joins the end of an expiring roll to the beginning of another. The two webs are brought together, one over the top of the other, with a thin adhesive tape between the two. A short length of web, or "tail," results when the expiring web is cut. A Martin Automatic lap splicer performs this splicing function without slowing or stopping the process. Martin has installed thousands of lap splicers around the world.
