The present invention relates to a method for the production of an absorbentdisposable incontinence diaper (2), with an absorbent body (12) having a mainpart (4), comprising a front portion (6) with longitudinal lateral front edges(42), aback portion (8) with longitudinal lateral back edges (41) and a crotchportion (10)arranged in-between, placed between the legs of the wearer, and with lateralback portions (20) bilaterally attached to the back portion (8) and lateralfrontportions (22) bilaterally attached to the front portion (6), which extend intransverse direction (30) of the disposable incontinence diaper (2) beyond thelongitudinal lateral front and/or the back edges (42, 41) of the main body(4), andare spaced apart from one another in the longitudinal direction (28) of thedisposable incontinence diaper (2), where the lateral back and front portions(20,22) may be detachably connected to one another to apply the disposableincontinence diaper (2), where a continuous or quasi-continuous separationprocess including the lateral back portion (20), the main part (4) and thelateralfront portion (22) is implemented to contour the bilateral leg opening areas(50) ofthe disposable incontinence diaper (2), so that a connected offcut (62) isformedby the lateral back portion (20), the main part (4) and the lateral frontportion (22)which has to be conveyed away, characterized in that the offcut (62) isgrippedand conveyed away by a transfer roller (100) having pin-, needle-, knob-, hook-or barb-shaped mechanical elements (102) protruding from its surface (104).
