1. An apparatus for making elastic laminates, the apparatus comprising:
an anvil comprising an outer circumferential surface and adapted to rotate in a first direction about an axis of rotation, a plurality of pattern elements extending radially outward from the outer circumferential surface, the anvil extending axially from a first end to a second end;
an ultrasonic horn adjacent the outer circumferential surface;
a first spreader mechanism comprising a first disk and a second disk, the first disk axially displaced from the second disk along the axis of rotation, wherein the first disk and the second disk are canted relative each other, each disk comprising an outer rim, the first and second disks adapted to rotate in a second direction opposite the first direction;
a second spreader mechanism comprising a first disk and a second disk, the first disk axially displaced from the second disk along the axis of rotation, wherein the first disk and the second disk are canted relative to each other, each disk comprising an outer rim, the first and second disks adapted to rotate in a second direction opposite the first direction;
wherein the first spreader mechanism is axially displaced from the second spreader mechanism along the first axis of rotation; and
wherein the first spreader mechanism is angularly displaced from the second spreader mechanism with respect to the first axis of rotation.
