Method and Device for Winding of Fiber Webs, Especially of Partial Paper and Board Webs

Fiber webs are wound into partial web rolls (15) in a winding device having at least two winding stations (20) and rider roll units (30) that load a pair of rider rolls (31,32) against the partial web roll (15) being wound. The partial webs (W1, W2) are guided to be wound to partial web rolls (15) around cores (14) via a nip between a winding roll (10) and the partial web rolls (15). The winding position of the partial web rolls (15) is on the upper circumferential half of the winding roll (10). The rider rolls (31, 32) are moved substantially linearly in the direction of the radius of the partial web rolls (15) and co-linear with a movement path of winding chucks (25) on which the partial web rolls are supported at the two ends of a core (14).
