Patent AT-E399714-T1: [Translated] MACHINE AND METHOD FOR PACKAGING

Published by National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) | U.S. Department of Health & Human Services | Metadata Last Checked: September 07, 2025 | Last Modified: 2025-09-06
A packaging method and apparatus wherein each product (P) is packaged by capturing the product in flexible packaging material. The packing apparatus includes a product detector (86) for detecting the presence or absence of a product to be packaged. The detection of the product may cause the advancement of packaging material (22,24) and the product through a nipping station (70,72) to form a package. The failure to detect a product may cause the advancement of the packaging material to stop and conserve packaging material until a product is detected. The product detector (86) is a light-sensitive sensor trained to detect a difference in light passing through the first web.
