    摘要: The machine (100) comprises:
    - a first feeder (112), able to unwind a first tape (31);
    - a profiler apparatus (110) comprising an upstream profiling stage (122A to 122G) able to profile the first tape (31) to form a pre-profiled first tape (31);
    - a second feeder (114), able to unwind a second tape (48), the second tape (48) being a flat tape;
    The profiler apparatus (110) comprises:
    - an intermediate joining stage (124) able to receive the second tape (48) as a flat tape from the second feeder (114) and able to join the pre-formed first tape (31) and the flat second tape (48); and
    - at least a downstream profiling stage (126A to 126C) configured to jointly profile the first tape (31) and the second tape (48) received from the intermediate joining stage (124) and form a combined profiled strip (196).
