Zusammenfassung: | A method for forming an apertured web which may be used as a topsheet on a disposable absorbent article, such as a diaper. The web (240) is fed in as machine direction through a first nip (250) formed by a pair of rollers one of the rollers having a smooth outer surface and the other roller having an outer surface with a plurality of projections extending from it's outer surface. At least one of the rollers of the first nip (250) is heated. The first nip (250) apertures the web (240) with a plurality of apertures each having a fused perimeter. The web (240) is then cooled to solidify the fused perimeter of the apertures. The web (240) is then fed through a second nip (280) formed by a pair of rollers to break the solidified fused perimeter of the apertures. One of the rollers of the second nip (280) has an outer surface with a plurality of grooves. |
