Abstract

In a process and apparatus for perforating a thermoplastic sheet e.g. film of a type suitable for use in disposable garments such as diapers, a sheet 14 of thermoplastic material is disposed on a rotating perforated element 16 which has thereon hexagonal depressions having elliptical holes therein, and a fluid pressure differential is applied to the sheet to cause it to flow into the depressions and rupture at the elliptical holes which are orientated with the major axes thereof in the direction of rotation of the rotating element. <IMAGE>
