  • Patent number: 12251886
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing flexible tube bodies (18) for packaging tubes from a film substrate (1) which has a print, preferably on an outer side (2), and which has or consists of at least one weldable plastic layer and which comprises a first longitudinal edge side (8), which extends in a longitudinal direction, and a second longitudinal edge side (8?) parallel thereto and spaced apart therefrom, wherein the film substrate (1) is shaped by shaping means (23) to form a tube, and the two longitudinal edge sides (8, 8?) are in particular welded to one another with the formation of a longitudinal weld seam, wherein a strip (12) is arranged, in the region of the abutment point and/or of the longitudinal weld seam, in the interior (17) of the film substrate (1) shaped to form the tube and is connected, in particular welded, to the longitudinal edge sides (8, 8?) at least in certain regions or portions.

  • Patent number: 9327463
    Abstract: A device for producing tubes for packaging tubes, comprising an elongated mandrel (3), around which a substrate web can be formed in order to produce a tubular form (4) that surrounds the mandrel (3) and can be conveyed along the mandrel (3) in a conveying direction (R), as well as welding means (9) for welding the substrate web along a welding region in order to produce a welding seam (11) and at least one first welding belt (34) that can be conveyed together with the tubular form (4) and fixes the tubular form in a contact region of the substrate web with itself by clamping the substrate web between the first welding belt (34) and a clamping partner, wherein means (13) are provided for expanding the tubular form (4) fixed by the first welding belt (34) and the clamping partner by plastically elongating the substrate web in the circumferential direction, wherein said means can be adjusted into a position, in which they radially protrude over the outer surface (14) of the mandrel section (31) of the mandrel (
