There is described a laminating apparatus for coupling electrodes of non-rectangular shape with a separating film for the manufacture of electric energy accumulating devices, wherein a pair of laminating rollers has a roller driven by an elastic arrangement loaded with a variable force adjusted by an endless screw conveyor controlled by a brushless motor, during the passage of the electrodes, so as to vary the laminating force according to the width of the electrode laminated instant by instant, in order for the laminating pressure to remain almost constant.
