Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for transporting unfilled bags with the features of the preamble of claim 1. Furthermore, the invention relates to an apparatus for carrying out the method, namely for handling bags.
  • a continuous film web is transported in an upright plane in the horizontal direction, folded and divided by welding into individual bags. These are successively separated by transverse separation cut from the web and passed to a revolver with a vertical axis of rotation and upright receptacles for each bag. The transfer is limited to individual bags, which are separated directly in the transfer position of the correspondingly prepared film web. The revolver is used to fill and close the bags.
