Abstract: A method of producing film-wrapped packages or packaged units, wherein a package or packaged unit is wrapped in a film hose formed by helical wrapping of the film (web) (30). In front of the wrapping front advancing relative to the package, a tear-up thread is also enclosed by the forming film hose. A wakening (tear-up) line is formed in the film hose in the vicinity and along the length of the tear-up thread. Here, an abutment for a spiked roller (10) is formed by a stationary tongue (12) above a conveyor belt (6) and below the film (web) (30).

Abstract: Process and apparatus for an orbital stretch wrapper to form two superimposed layers of opposite pitch on items or bundles. Shrinkable film is drawn off two separate supply rolls under tension simultaneously in opposing rotational directions. The rolls are placed successively along the length of a conveyor belt separated by at least one width of the film.

Abstract: A stretch foil wrapping arrangement for wrapping objects. The objects are conveyed to a transition bridge around which a stretch foil tube is wrapped. As the objects are conveyed through the transition bridge they pass inside of the tube which is out after the object and tube portion in which it is wrapped leave the transition bridge. The transition bridge includes upper and lower conveyors each having an outer actively driven belt and an inner passively driven roller plane in contact with the objects.

Abstract: A method of producing film-wrapped packages or packaged units, wherein a package or packaged unit is wrapped in a film hose formed by helical wrapping of the film (web) (30). In front of the wrapping front advancing relative to the package, a tear-up thread is also enclosed by the forming film hose. A weakening (tear-up) line is formed in the film hose in the vicinity and along the length of the tear-up thread. Here, an abutment for a spiked roller (10) is formed by a stationary tongue (12) above a conveyor belt (6) and below the film (web) (30).
