Publication number: 20070091171Abstract: A method and apparatus for making pouches is disclosed. It includes continuously moving the film through an intake section and then through a shuttle section. The film passes a plurality of successive sealing stations in the shuttle section, and while the film moves continuously, the film is at times generally stationary with respect to the sealing stations and at times moving with respect to the sealing stations. A plurality of successive seals is applied with the plurality of sealing stations, while the film is generally stationary with respect to the sealing stations. The film is then moved through an output section.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 2, 2006Publication date: April 26, 2007Applicant: CMD CorporationInventors: Gerald Winiecki, Rondal Wied, Gary Sargin

Publication number: 20060040815Abstract: A pouch machine includes a controller and first and second modules. Each module has a converting station and the electrical equipment needed to operate the station. The controller controls the converting stations and operating parameters are provided from one module to the next. Each module may be a processing zone and include a registration sensor and a drawroll responsive to the respective registration sensor. Accumulators may be provided in each processing zone. An edge sensor may be provided that senses the edge of the film in one or more modules. The draw roll assembly is mounted on a moveable frame, and is angled in response to the location of the sensed edge. Multiple such assemblies may be included on a single machine.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 25, 2005Publication date: February 23, 2006Inventors: Randy Wied, Gaylord Guilette, Scott Mattila, David Thomas, Mark Krueger, Gerald Winiecki, Gary Sargin
