  • the invention relates to a packaging machine, in particular a roller or thermoforming machine, a tray sealing machine or the like according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such packaging machines such as in the EP 1 403 187 A are frequently used in the packaging of foodstuffs and must therefore meet high hygienic requirements.
  • such machines are regularly cleaned and disinfected to reliably prevent contamination of the packaged goods to be packaged by residues or germs from the packaging machine.
  • the object of the invention in contrast, to propose a packaging machine in which the cleaning of the components to be cleaned is improved.
  • the transport plane is understood to mean the upper edge of the dish-shaped packaging containers passed through the packaging machine for packaging the packaged product to be packaged therewith.
  • the shell-shaped packaging containers can be supplied as already prefabricated trays, so-called tray sealers, and passed through the packaging machine, or formed in a wrapping machine also passed through the packaging machine in the packaging machine by a forming station, e.g. by means of a film thermoforming process.
  • the transport plane is thus at the same time that plane in which the film provided with the packaging troughs is transported through the packaging machine.
  • lateral limitations of the packaging machine understood, such as corresponding sections of a housing of the packaging machine, which separate the thus described interior of the packaging machine from the outside environment, preferably at least predominantly fluid-tight. This cleaning of this interior of the packaging machine even under pressurization for the interior cleaning cleaning fluid without affecting the environment of the packaging machine is possible.
