Method and apparatus for making prefastened and refastenable pant with desired waist and hip fit

   
   

A process for making a prefastened and refastenable pant includes providing a plurality of discrete articles having side panels and waist regions including an activatable retractive material. The side panels can be folded parallel to a longitudinal centerline to overlap at least portions of first and second fastening components. The fastening components are then engaged to form a prefastened and refastenable pant. The retractive material can be activated subsequent to engagement of the fastening components, or subsequent to obtaining position control of the side panels, to provide the pant with a waistband-to-hip circumference ratio of about 95 percent or less. The prefastened and refastenable pant and apparatus for its manufacture are also disclosed.

Um processo para fazer a prefastened e o pant refastenable inclui fornecer um plurality dos artigos discretos que têm os painéis laterais e as regiões da cintura including um material retractive activatable. Os painéis laterais podem estar paralelos dobrado a uma linha central longitudinal para sobrepôr ao menos parcelas de primeiramente e segundos componentes da asseguração. Os componentes da asseguração são acoplados então para dar forma a a prefastened e pant refastenable. O material retractive pode ser subseqüente ao acoplamento dos componentes da asseguração, ou subseqüente ativado a obter o controle da posição dos painéis laterais, para fornecer o pant com uma relação da circunferência do waistband-à-waistband-to-hip de aproximadamente 95 por cento ou de menos. Prefastened e o pant e os instrumentos refastenable para sua manufatura são divulgados também.
