Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Umreifungsautomat zum Abbinden von Packstücken, insbesondere von zu Bunden gewickelten Metallbändern, mit mindestens einem um ein Packstück herumgeführten Umreifungsband, wobei ein Bindekopf gegen das Packstück anstellbar ist, umfassend eine Spannvorrichtung sowie zum Verbinden der Enden des unter Zug gespannten Umreifungsbandes eine Schweißvorrichtung mit zumindest einer in einer Elektrodenkammer angeordneten oberen, zustellbaren Schweißelektrode und eine mit dieser temporär zusammenwirkende Gegenelektrode, wobei der Schweißvorrichtung zum Packstück hin eine Schieberplatte zugeordnet ist.The invention relates to a strapping machine for setting packages, in particular wound into coils metal bands, with at least one strapping around a package strapping, wherein a binding head against the package can be adjusted, comprising a tensioning device and for connecting the ends of the stretched under tension strapping a welding device with at least one arranged in an electrode chamber upper, deliverable welding electrode and a temporarily cooperating with this counter electrode, the welding device is associated with the package towards a slide plate.

Das grundlegende Prinzip derartiger in unterschiedlichen Ausführungen zum Stand der Technik zählenden Umreifungsautomaten beruht darauf, einen Bindekopf bzw. Umreifungs- oder Verschlusskopf an einem zu umreifenden Packstück zu positionieren, ein Umreifungsband um das Packstück herumzuführen, das Umreifungsband zu spannen und seine Enden innerhalb des Bindekopfes hintereinander zu verbinden. Die sich überlappenden Enden des vorgespannten Umreifungsbandes werden stoff- oder formschlüssig miteinander verbunden. Das von einer Vorratsrolle entnommene Umreifungsband wird abgetrennt und der Bindekopf vom Packstück abgehoben, wobei alle Arbeitsschritte automatisiert ablaufen.The basic principle of such various prior art strapping machines is to position a strapping head on a package to be strapped, guide a strapping band around the package, tension the strapping band, and place its ends one behind the other inside the binding head connect to. The overlapping ends of the prestressed strapping band are materially or positively connected to each other. The removed from a supply roll strapping is separated and the binding head lifted from the package, with all operations are automated.

Ein Umreifungsautomat mit Spann- und Verschlussvorrichtung der eingangs genannten Art ist durch die EP-B1 0 194 627 bekannt geworden. Die mit der Gegenelektrode schlittenartig in der Ebene des Überlappungsbereiches unterhalb der Schweißelektroden verfahrbare Schieberplatte besteht aus einer oberen und einer unteren Platte, die aufeinander bzw. übereinander gleiten. Die obere Platte wird dabei auf der unteren Schiebeplatte geführt, in der die Gegenelektrode eingebettet ist. Bei aufgedrückten Elektroden und aufeinander liegenden Bandenden wird ein den Schweißvorgang ermöglichender Stromkreis geschlossen. Dies dann, wenn die obere Platte so weit weggefahren wurde, dass sie die in der unteren Platte eingebettete Gegenelektrode freigibt, wobei das Umreifungsband genau über der Gegenelektrode und unterhalb der zustellbaren Schweißelektrode liegt. Nach dem Schweißvorgang wird die dann gleichzeitig die untere Platte mitnehmende obere Platte soweit verfahren, dass die geschweißte Bandschlaufe freigegeben wird bzw. freiliegt.A strapping machine with tensioning and closing device of the type mentioned is by the EP-B1 0 194 627 known. The slidably with the counter electrode in the plane of the overlap area below the Welding electrodes movable slide plate consists of an upper and a lower plate, which slide on each other or on top of each other. The upper plate is guided on the lower slide plate, in which the counter electrode is embedded. When pressed electrodes and superimposed band ends a welding process enabling circuit is closed. This is when the upper plate has been moved so far that it releases the embedded in the lower plate counter electrode, wherein the strap is just above the counter electrode and below the deliverable welding electrode. After the welding process, the upper plate, which then entrains the lower plate, is moved so far that the welded band loop is released or exposed.

Die Umreifungsbänder unterliegen während des Transports der Packstücke, z. B. gebündelte stab- oder rohrähnliche Metallprodukte oder zu Bunden gewickelte Metallbänder, sehr starken, ggf. dynamischen Belastungen, die von den Umreifungsbändern aufgenommen werden müssen. Je nach Materialgüte und -eigenschaften der Packstücke werden zur Sicherung gegen Aufspringen und / oder zur Verhinderung von Verschiebungen ein bis drei Umreifungen um den Umfang der Packstücke angelegt. In jedem Fall müssen die Umreifungsbänder stark vorgespannt werden, was an die Grenzen der Zug- und Reißfestigkeit des Materials der Umreifungsbänder gehen und auch zu Bandeindrücken auf dem Packstück führen kann.The strapping are subject during transport of the packages, z. As bundled rod or tube-like metal products or coils wound to metal bands, very strong, possibly dynamic loads that must be absorbed by the strapping. Depending on the material quality and properties of the packages, one to three strapping around the circumference of the packages are created to protect against cracking and / or to prevent displacement. In any case, the strapping must be strongly biased, which goes to the limits of tensile and tear strength of the material of the strapping and can also lead to banding on the package.

Diese Problematik wird durch die nach dem Stand der Technik in den Stahlschieber eingebettete Gegenelektrode noch verstärkt. Denn die Schieberplatte, die zudem in einer Nut einer Trägerplatte geführt wird, muss groß dimensioniert werden, insbesondere in der Dicke, um die beim Schweißvorgang durch die aufgedrückten Schweißelektroden auftretenden hohen Kräfte aufnehmen zu können. Da das verschweißte Umreifungsband nach dem Abtrennen und Herausziehen der Stahlschieberplatte mit der eingebetteten Gegenelektrode im Verschluss- bzw. Überlappungsbereich entsprechend der Dicke der Schieberplatte einschließlich der durch die Nutführung zusätzlichen Höhe zum Umfang des Packstückes zurückspringt, wobei sich das Umreifungsband umfangsgeschlossen an die Oberfläche des Packstücks anlegt, ist dafür eine zusätzliche Vorspannung erforderlich.This problem is compounded by the prior art embedded in the steel slide counter electrode. Because the slide plate, which is also guided in a groove of a support plate, must be large in size, especially in thickness to accommodate the welding forces caused by the pressed-on welding electrodes high forces can. Since the welded strap after separating and pulling the steel slide plate with the embedded counter electrode in the closing or overlapping area according to the thickness of the slide plate, including the groove through the additional height to the periphery of the package springs back, wherein the strapping circumferentially closed applies to the surface of the package, an additional bias is required for this.

Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine automatisierte Umreifungsmaschine zu schaffen, die in baulich einfacherer Weise eine sicherere, den hohen Belastungen standhaltende Anbringung der Umreifungsbänder ermöglicht.The invention is therefore an object of the invention to provide an automated strapping machine that allows a safer, the high loads steady mounting the strapping in a structurally simpler way.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, dass die Schieberplatte gleichzeitig als Gegenelektrode ausgebildet ist und im Bereich der sich überlappenden Enden des Umreifungsbandes an dessen Unterseite mit Abstützung direkt auf dem Packstück zum Einsatz kommt. Dadurch, dass die die Elektrodenkammer, in der sich je nach Schweißverfahren die Widerstandselektroden für Schweißen oder Wolframelektroden für Schutzgasanwendungen befinden, abschirmende Schieberplatte während des Schweißvorgangs erfindungsgemäß unmittelbar zwischen dem Packstück und dem Umreifungsband vorgesehen ist, so dass kein Strom durch das Packstück fließen kann, und sogleich als Gegenelektrode ausgebildet ist, die bei den auftretenden Kräften in vorteilhafter Weise eine Abstützung direkt auf dem Packstück ermöglicht, lässt sich nach dem Herausziehen bzw. Entfernen der Platte aus dem Schweißbereich zur Sicherung des Packstücks bei gleichbleibender Spannkraft eine deutlich höhere Bandspannung des Umreifungsbandes erreichen. Denn der Weg, den das geschweißte Umreifungsband beim Anlegen an das Packstück zurücklegen muss, wird nur noch von der geringen Dicke der Schieberplatte bestimmt. Während das Umreifungsband bei den bekannten Schieberplatten mit eingebetteter Gegenelektrode und zusätzlicher Führung beim Anlegen an den Umfang des Packstücks etwa 10 mm zurückspringt, beträgt dieser Weg mit der erfindungsgemäßen Schieberplatte nur etwa 2 mm.This object is achieved in that the slide plate is formed simultaneously as a counter electrode and in the region of the overlapping ends of the strapping on the underside with support directly on the package is used. By virtue of the fact that the electrode chamber in which the resistance electrodes for welding or tungsten electrodes for protective gas applications are located, depending on the welding process, is provided according to the invention directly between the package and the strapping band during the welding operation, so that no current can flow through the package, and is formed immediately as a counter electrode, which advantageously allows a support directly on the package at the forces occurring, can be achieved after pulling or removing the plate from the welding area to secure the package at a constant clamping force a much higher belt tension of the strapping. Because the way that the welded strapping tape has to cover when putting it on the package is determined only by the small thickness of the slide plate. While the strapping back in the known slide plates with embedded counter electrode and additional guide upon application to the periphery of the package about 10 mm, this path is only about 2 mm with the slide plate according to the invention.

Die Erfindung sieht vor, dass die Schieberplatte eine der Schweißelektrode gegenüberliegende Vorkragzunge und ein mit einem Anstellmittel verbundenes Plattenendteil aufweist. Es liegt damit eine Systemtrennung vor, was einerseits das ungehinderte Positionieren der Vorkragzunge zu der Schweißelektrode bzw. den Schweißelektroden und andererseits die Bewegungsbeaufschlagung durch das Anstellmittel, vorteilhaft wie für die Zustellung bzw. das Andrücken der Schweißelektroden eine Pneumatikzylindereinheit, entfernt vom Ort des Geschehens der Verschweißung, nämlich dem hinteren Ende der Schieberplatte ermöglicht.The invention provides that the slide plate has a feed tongue opposite the welding electrode and a plate end part connected to a setting means. There is thus a system separation, which on the one hand the unhindered positioning of the Vorkragzunge to the welding electrode or the welding electrodes and on the other hand, the movement of the Anstellmittel, advantageous as for the delivery or the pressing of the welding electrodes a pneumatic cylinder unit, away from the scene of the welding , namely the rear end of the slide plate allows.

Die Systemtrennung eröffnet weiterhin die Möglichkeit, dass zumindest die Vorkragzunge der aus Kupfer bestehenden Schieberplatte sich elastisch an die Oberfläche des Packstücks anschmiegend ausgebildet werden kann. Die Vorkragzunge bzw. die Schieberplatte kann nämlich von geringer Dicke, etwa 6 mm, sein, da sie aufgrund der unmittelbaren Abstützung auf dem Packstück keine Kräfte aufnehmen muss, die vielmehr in das Bindekopfgehäuse und / oder die gehäuseartige Elektrodenkammer eingeleitet und aufgefangen werden.The system separation also opens up the possibility that at least the supply tongue of the slide plate made of copper can be elastically formed to conform to the surface of the package. Namely, the feed tongue or the slide plate may be of small thickness, about 6 mm, because it does not have to absorb any forces due to the direct support on the package, which are rather introduced and collected in the binding head housing and / or the housing-like electrode chamber.

Das elastische Anschmiegen lässt sich weiter dadurch begünstigen, dass vorzugsweise die in Umfangsrichtung des Packstücks außen liegenden Kanten der Schieberplatte mit einer Rundung bzw. einem Außenradius versehen sind.The elastic nestling can be further favored by the fact that preferably in the circumferential direction of the package outer edges of the slide plate are provided with a rounding or an outer radius.

Eine vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung der Erfindung besteht darin, dass das Plattenendteil einen mit einem Kühlmittelkreislauf ausgebildeten, an eine Kühlmittelversorgung anschließbaren Kühlblock trägt. Der Kühlmittelkreislauf kann in einfacher Weise durch Bohren von Kanälen hergestellt werden, die sich an den nicht für eine Kühlmittelversorgung benötigten Öffnungen durch Blindstopfen verschließen lassen. Der Kühlblock, der über an der dem Packstück zugewandten Seite Senkköpfe aufweisenden Schrauben auf dem Plattenendteil befestigt werden kann, gewährleistet ein beim Schweißvorgang weitestgehend gleichbleibendes Temperaturniveau, womit sich der Elektrodenverschleiß bzw. -abbrand verringert und ein unnötiger Wärmeübergang in das Packstück verhindert wird.An advantageous embodiment of the invention is that the plate end part carries a formed with a coolant circuit, connectable to a coolant supply cooling block. The coolant circuit can be easily manufactured by drilling channels which can be closed by blind plugs at the openings not required for a coolant supply. The cooling block, which can be fastened on the side facing the package countersunk heads screws on the Plattenendteil, ensures a largely constant during the welding process Temperature level, which reduces the electrode wear or erosion and prevents unnecessary heat transfer into the package.

Eine andere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung der Erfindung sieht einen das Plattenendteil aufnehmenden Tragrahmen vor, der mit einer sich orthogonal dazu erstreckenden, integriert ein Druckfedermittel aufweisenden Vertikalführung ausgebildet ist, wobei das Anstellmittel an die Vertikalführung angreift. Das Anstellmittel greift somit indirekt an die Schieberplatte an, die sich oberhalb des Packstücks über den Tragrahmen im Bindekopfgehäuse verstellen lässt. Das integrierte Druckfedermittel dient zur Sicherung der Endposition, d. h. nach dem Abheben der Schweißelektrode bzw. der Schweißelektroden bringt es die Schieberplatte zurück in ihre Ausgangsposition.Another advantageous embodiment of the invention provides for a supporting frame receiving the plate end part, which is formed with a vertically extending, integrally formed a compression spring means having vertical guide, wherein the adjusting means engages the vertical guide. The adjusting means thus acts indirectly on the slide plate, which can be adjusted above the package on the support frame in the binding head housing. The integrated compression spring means serves to secure the end position, d. H. after lifting the welding electrode or the welding electrodes, it brings the slide plate back to its original position.

Nach einem Vorschlag der Erfindung ist an dem Gehäuse des Bindekopfs ein nach unten vorspringender, sich auf die Oberfläche des Packstücks auflegender, von der Vorkragzunge in Anstellrichtung beabstandeter Endanschlag vorgesehen. Dieser begrenzt die maximale Anstellbewegung der Schieberplatte und fängt außerdem Kräfte auf bzw. leitet diese in das Bindekopfgehäuse ein, das als stabile Schweißkonstruktion oder aus Guss hergestellt werden kann.According to one proposal of the invention is on the housing of the binding head downwardly projecting, auflegender on the surface of the package, provided by the Vorkragzunge in Anstellrichtung end stop provided. This limits the maximum Anstellbewegung the slide plate and also absorbs forces or introduces them into the binding head housing, which can be made as a stable welded construction or cast.

Wenn vorzugsweise ein an die Elektrodenkammer horizontal angreifender Anstellzylinder vorgesehen wird, lassen sich versetzte Schweißpunkte mit einer variablen Punktgeometrie erreichen. Hierbei lassen sich beispielsweise vier, fünf oder sechs Schweißpunkte vorsehen, die bei einem bevorzugten Schweißpunkt- oder Elektrodendurchmesser von 6 - 9 mm etwa 18 - 30 mm auseinanderliegen sollten, um Strom oder Spannungsschlüsse zwischen den einzelnen Schweißpunkten zu vermeiden.If it is preferable to provide a setting cylinder which acts horizontally on the electrode chamber, staggered spot welds can be achieved with a variable point geometry. In this case, for example, four, five or six welding points can be provided which, with a preferred spot or electrode diameter of 6 to 9 mm, should be approximately 18 to 30 mm apart in order to avoid current or voltage gaps between the individual spot welds.

Es ist erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen, dass mindestens zwei Bindekopfeinheiten mit diesen jeweils zugeordneten Schieberplatten einzeln für sich nebeneinander angeordnet sind. Dies ist insbesondere dann vorzusehen, wenn das für das Produkt erforderliche Umreifungsband ein über eine maximale Breite, handelsüblich 32 mm, hinausgehende Abmessung erfordert.It is inventively provided that at least two binding head units with each associated slide plates individually for themselves next to each other are arranged. This is to be provided in particular if the strapping band required for the product requires a dimension exceeding a maximum width, commercially available 32 mm.

Im Bindekopf 8 wird der Bandanfang geklemmt und das überschüssige Umreifungsband reversiert, bis die Umreifungsschlinge am Umfang des Packstücks 2 anliegt. Das überschüssige Umreifungsband wird über eine Umkehrregelung der Direkthaspel 3 wieder aufgewickelt.The FIG. 1 shows very schematically a strapping machine 1 for setting packages 2, here in the form of a metal band. From a direct reel 3, with continuous control and brake, a strapping 4 is unwound and conveyed by a tape guide system 5 to the package 2. One of the direct reel downstream pulley 6 directs the strap 4 initially in a roller straightening 7, which ensures that on the one hand the beginning of the belt is conveyed straight and without kinks through the tape guide system 5 into a binding head 8 and on the other hand, the strapping 4 with decreasing Abwickelradius always straight into the tape guide system 5 passes. In the binding head 8, the beginning of the tape is clamped and the excess strapping tape is reversed until the strapping loop rests against the circumference of the package 2. The excess strapping is rewound via a reverse control of the direct reel 3.

Der im Ausführungsbeispiel dargestellt Bindekopf 8 besteht aus zwei nebeneinander angeordneten Bindekopfeinheiten 8a, 8b, die zum Verbinden der Überlappungsenden 4a, 4b des gespannten Umreifungsbandes 4 mit Schweißvorrichtungen 9a, 9b ausgerüstet sind, die in einer Elektrodenkammer 10 in einem Elektrodenhalter 11 angeordnete Schweißelektroden 12 aufnehmen. Sowohl der Bindekopf 8 bzw. die Bindekopfeinheiten 8a, 8b als auch die Schweißelektroden 12 sind gegen den Umfang des Packstücks 2 anstellbar. Die Elektrodenhalter 11 werden dazu von auf den Elektrodenkammern 10 verschraubten Zylindern 13, ausgeführt als Pneumatikzylinder, beaufschlagt (vergleiche die Figuren 2 und 3).The binding head 8 shown in the embodiment consists of two juxtaposed binding head units 8a, 8b, which are equipped to connect the overlap ends 4a, 4b of the strapped strap 4 with welding devices 9a, 9b, which receive welding electrodes 12 arranged in an electrode chamber 10 in an electrode holder 11. Both the binding head 8 and the binding head units 8a, 8b and the welding electrodes 12 can be adjusted against the circumference of the package 2. For this purpose, the electrode holders 11 are acted on by cylinders 13 bolted to the electrode chambers 10, designed as pneumatic cylinders (compare FIGS Figures 2 and 3 ).

Zum Schweißvorgang sind den Schweißelektroden 12 temporär gegenüberliegend Schieberplatten 14 zugeordnet, die aus dünnem Kupfer bestehen und mit Abstützung bzw. Anlage direkt auf der Oberfläche des Packstücks 2 gleichzeitig als Gegenelektrode ausgebildet sind. Wie den Figuren 3 und 4 zu entnehmen ist, weist jede Schieberplatte 14 eine Vorkragzunge 14a und ein Plattenendteil 14b auf, wobei die Schieberplatten 14 zum Verschweißen so zum Einsatz gebracht bzw. verstellt werden, dass die Vorkragzungen 14a im Schweißbereich der unter Zug gespannten, sich überlappenden Enden 4a, 4b des Umreifungsbandes 4 den Schweißelektroden 12 gegenüberliegen.For welding, the welding electrodes 12 are temporarily associated with slide plates 14, which are made of thin copper and are formed with support or system directly on the surface of the package 2 at the same time as a counter electrode. Like that Figures 3 and 4 can be seen, each slide plate 14 has a Vorkragzunge 14a and a Plattenendteil 14b, wherein the slide plates 14 so used for welding or adjusted be that the Vorkragzungen 14 a in the weld region of the tensioned, overlapping ends 4 a, 4 b of the strapping 4 opposite the welding electrodes 12.

Wie aus den Figuren 3 und 4 entnommen werden kann, ist auf dem Plattenendteil 14b mittels Senkkopfschrauben 15 ein Kühlblock 16 befestigt. Dieser ist mit einem durch Kanalbohrungen hergestellten Kühlmittelkreislauf 17 versehen, der Anschlüsse 18 für den Zu- bzw. Ablauf eines Kühlmittels (Wasser) besitzt. Die nicht benötigten Austrittsöffnungen der Kanalbohrungen des Kühlmittelkreislaufs 17 sind durch Blindstopfen 19 verschlossen. Das Plattenendteil 14b der Schieberplatte 14 einschließlich Kühlblock 16 wird von einem Tragrahmen 20 aufgenommen, der linear verstellbar im Bindekopfgehäuse 21 (vergleiche Figur 3) angeordnet ist.Like from the Figures 3 and 4 can be removed, on the plate end portion 14b by means of countersunk screws 15, a cooling block 16 is attached. This is provided with a coolant circuit 17 produced by channel bores, which has connections 18 for the inlet and outlet of a coolant (water). The unneeded outlet openings of the channel bores of the coolant circuit 17 are closed by blind plugs 19. The plate end portion 14b of the slide plate 14 including the cooling block 16 is received by a support frame 20, the linear adjustable in the binding head housing 21 (see FIG. 3 ) is arranged.

Zur Verstellung des Tragrahmens 20 und damit Positionierung der Schieberplatte 14 ist als Anstellmittel 22 eine Pneumatikzylindereinheit vorgesehen, die mit einer Kolbenstange 23 an eine sich orthogonal zu dem Tragrahmen 20 erstreckende, säulenartige Vertikalführung 24 angreift.For adjustment of the support frame 20 and thus positioning of the slide plate 14 is provided as adjusting means 22, a pneumatic cylinder unit which engages with a piston rod 23 to a orthogonal to the support frame 20 extending, columnar vertical guide 24.

Die Figur 3 zeigt, dass das Bindekopfgehäuse 21 mit einem nach unten vorspringenden, der Vorkragzunge 14a der Schieberplatte 14 mit Abstand gegenüberliegenden Endanschlag 25 und außerdem einem horizontal an die Elektrodenkammer 10 angreifenden Anstellzylinder 26 ausgebildet ist. Der Anstellzylinder 26 ermöglicht variable, insbesondere versetzte Schweißpunkte.The FIG. 3 shows that the binding head housing 21 is formed with a downwardly projecting, the Vorkragzunge 14a of the slide plate 14 at a distance opposite end stop 25 and also a horizontally acting on the electrode chamber 10 Anstellzylinder 26. The adjusting cylinder 26 allows variable, in particular offset welding points.

Wie aus Figur 5 erkennbar, sind die in Umfangsrichtung 27 außenliegenden Kanten der Schieberplatte 14 bzw. bei Nebeneinanderanordnung von zwei Schieberplatten die jeweils äußeren Kanten der Vorkragzungen 14a (vergleiche Figur 4) mit einer Rundung 28 versehen, was das Anpassen bzw. Anschmiegen der wegen ihrer geringen Dicke ohnehin elastischen Schieberplatte 14 bzw. 14a, 14b an den Außenumfang des Packstücks 2 weiter begünstigt.How out FIG. 5 can be seen, the outer edges of the slide plate 14 in the circumferential direction 27 or in juxtaposition of two slide plates, the respective outer edges of the Vorkragzungen 14a (see FIG. 4 ), which further favors the adaptation or nestling of the anyway because of their small thickness elastic slide plate 14 and 14 a, 14 b on the outer circumference of the package 2.

Die Figur 5 macht beim Vergleich mit der in Figur 6 dargestellten bekannten Schieberplattenausführung, bei der die gestrichelt gezeichnete Gegenelektrode 114a in den unteren Stahlschieber 114 eingebettet ist, wobei der Stahlschieber 114 zudem in Nuten von Seitenwänden geführt ist, den großen Vorteil des erreichten Gewinns an Spannkraft deutlich. Denn nach Figur 6 wird ein hoher Anteil an Dehnung des Umreifungsbandes benötigt, weil ein durch den Stahlschieber und dessen Seitenwandführungen großer Weg überwunden werden muss, der dann zum Verlust an Spannkraft führt, wenn die geschlossene Schlinge zur Anlage auf den Umfang des Packstücks 2 zurückspringt. Die dort somit zusätzliche Dehnung lässt sich nach Figur 5 weitestgehend vollständig als Spannkraft nutzen.The FIG. 5 makes comparisons with the in FIG. 6 shown known Schieberplattenausführung in which the dashed line counter electrode 114a is embedded in the lower steel slide 114, wherein the steel slide 114 is also guided in grooves of side walls, the great advantage of the achieved gain in clamping force clearly. Because after FIG. 6 For example, a high amount of stretch of the strapping band is required because a great distance has to be overcome by the steel slider and its side wall guides, which then results in the loss of clamping force when the closed loop springs back against the circumference of the package 2. The extra stretch there can therefore be reduced FIG. 5 largely completely use as clamping force.
