摘要：An apparatus and method for sealing the tail (T) of a rolled product (L) against the rolled product. After being positioned in a location upon a roll er (36), the rolled product is rotated between the roller and a conveyor assemb ly (6) until a jet (44) blows the unsealed tail against the roller. By further rotating the roller, a sensor detects the location of the tail end for determining tail length in later operations. The roller is reversed to pass the tail around the roller and preferably to a tail support (40) adjacent th e roller. When the tail reaches a desired position along the tail support, an applicator sensor (52) sends a signal to an adhesive assembly (42) which applies adhesive to the tail and/or the rolled product. After the adhesive h as been applied, the roller is again reversed to roll the tail back upon the rolled product. The rewound rolled product is then preferably rolled over at least one ironing roller (172).
