  • the endless film is then transported via a transport path under at least partially different transport speeds along further workstations of the packaging device.
  • the continuous film is fed to the wrapped and grouped articles of a film wrapping station of the packaging device.
  • the film sections are shortly before, during or shortly after wrapping the articles at the film wrapping station cut into a container of the endless film.
  • the film is fed to the film wrapping station at different transport speeds, and the grouped articles are also wrapped or packaged at a different speed.

  • the printed images of the containers of a container type differ, for example, by serial numbers or other data.
  • the printed images can already be applied to the endless film, so that different endless films must be provided for different types of packages.
  • the printed images are printed on the endless film at a later time in the packaging device shortly before the packaging of the articles with film, so that regardless of the type of packaging always only a "neutral", non-printed continuous film must be provided.
  • Printing on the spread, smooth and tensioned continuous film is cleaner and easier to perform than on the divided film sections and / or on the shrunken film.

Suitable for a respective given transport speed of the film in a printing unit downstream of the film wrapping station are printed from this position from a plurality of spaced printing areas in each case a film section on the continuous film.
  • a film section is provided for each still be produced container.
  • the final definition of the film dimension and pressure range depends, among other things, on the container shape and container size of the respective package type and the film properties.
  • the foil sections are still partial surfaces of the endless surface in this phase and will only be cut off from the endless foil at a later time.
  • a different position for the printing unit along the transport path of the endless film is determined when the transport speed of the film in the film wrapping station changes, for example when the container type changes.
  • This other position is determined to match the other transport speed in the film wrapping station, for example, suitable for differently printed film sections of a predetermined other container type, and matching a printing speed of the printing unit, so that the endless film at several, possibly different, spaced pressure ranges for the possibly other Container type can be printed.
  • the printing unit is moved from the previous position to the newly determined other position. The reasons why and when it is recommended to move the printing unit are described below.
  • the invention makes use of the fact that in devices for producing containers, the transport speed of the film is usually not constant but varies.
  • the different transport speeds of the endless film are due to the formatting of the container to be produced from the articles to be wrapped with foil.
  • different Transport speeds of the endless film are also independent of the particular type of container present, if the impact speed changes at the film wrapping station, for example because generally the processing speed and thus the average transport speed of the film for the device for producing the container is changed.
  • the transport speed of the film in the film wrapping station depends on the position of the wrapping element of the film wrapping station during manufacture of the containers. Usually, the maximum transport speed occurs during transport of the film over the grouped articles for the container to be produced during the wrapping process. All these speed changes also have to follow the endless foil in an area around the printing unit in order to provide enough film supply for the wrapping process.
  • the printing unit has a minimum and maximum speed range with regard to the conveying or web or transport speed of the endless film to be printed.
  • the print can still be applied cleanly and without error to the endless foil, whereas if this speed is exceeded, pressure is no longer possible or the print becomes defective.
  • the printing unit is moved in position according to the invention. Since the position of the printed image on the film section and the transport speed of the film from the actual packaging process is only partially or not influenced, the only way to change the transport speed at the printing time that the entire printing unit is moved in or against the transport direction of the endless film.
  • the transport speeds of the endless film are usually known at respectively different positions within the device for producing the containers or can be determined by known means from the prior art.
  • the printing speed at the printing unit By controlling the printing speed at the printing unit alone, it will hardly be possible to optimally meet very different demands on the printing complexity and quality for different types of packages or for changing transport speeds in the film wrapping station and the resulting transport speeds of the endless film in the area of the printing unit.
  • the printing quality can be markedly improved by selecting a position having such a film conveying speed that the desired printing areas on the film portions of the given package type or the given transport speed can be optimally printed in the film wrapping station.
  • the dimensions of the film sections may be different and / or the print areas on the individual film sections differently sized and / or complex, so that the printing speed should be adapted to the printing requirements and the transport speed of the particular type of container present. It may also be the case that although the dimensions of the foil sections are the same for different types of bundles, the pressure areas on the individual foil sections are different and / or complex and thus different transport speeds of the endless foil in the area of the printing unit occur, so that correspondingly different Printing requirements and different transport speeds of the film, the position of the printing unit in the device is determined and adjusted. For example, the printing areas assigned to the endless film for the film sections can be completely printed or only one or more subregions of the printing area can be printed.
  • the printing positions on the individual printing areas to be printed can also be selected as desired, for example centrally with respect to a single film section and / or at the edges of the film sections. Regardless, the spacing of the print areas to be printed is always the same for a single package type.
