Abstract: A packing machine and a method for adjusting multiple machine elements on a packaging machine. The position of each machine element is changeable by driving an assigned spindle in a rotary manner. A position measuring device is present on each spindle to measure the position of the assigned spindle. The measurement data of the different position measuring devices are transmittable to a control.

Abstract: A method for operating a packaging machine having at least one electric drive motor, the drive motor driving at least one functional unit of the packaging machine in a program-controlled manner when producing packaging using the following steps: (a) loading a parameter set into the control of the packaging machine, the parameter set containing at least one load parameter which limits the torque or the current consumption of the drive motor to a maximum when producing packaging; (b) operating the packaging machine for producing packaging, the maximally occurring actual value of the torque mustered at the drive motor or the current consumed by the drive motor being measured during operation; (c) determining a new load parameter as a function of the maximum actual value; (d) saving the new load parameter in a parameter set allocated to the packaging to be produced.
