Claim 1
Independent Claim 123 words
Apparatus for producing plastic net from thermoplastic film comprising: a first rotatable roll rotating at a first peripheral linear speed, means for heating said first rotatable roll, a second rotatable roll having a resilient, embossed surface in contact with said first rotatable roll and having its axis parallel to said first rotatable roll, said second rotatable roll rotating at a peripheral linear speed less than the peripheral linear speed of the first rotatable roll, means for applying pressure to the rotatable rolls whereby film passing between the rolls is embossed and gripped by said second rotatable roll and means for removing the embossed film from the second rotatable roll while simultaneously increasing the speed of the film in the direction of its length.
