Abstract: A chamber machine for cutting to length a bag filled with a product comprises at least one cutting device for severing an unnecessary bag neck and mutually spaced clamping devices for clamping a bag portion. The cutting device is positioned between the clamping devices so that severing of the bag neck can be carried out by the cutting device within the bag section clamped by the spaced clamping devices. The chamber machine further has at least one tensioning device positioned between the clamping devices for exerting a clamping force on the bag section clamped by the spaced-apart clamping devices.

Abstract: A packaging machine for packaging products under vacuum, the packaging machine comprising a lid and a chamber bottom which together form a chamber, the chamber bottom having formed therein a suction opening which can be closed in a gas-tight manner and to which a suction device for evacuating the chamber is connected. An electrically heatable grid is arranged on the suction opening to prevent ice forming near or around the suction opening during evacuation of the chamber.

Abstract: A packaging machine having at least one working component that is mounted in an adjustable manner relative to a machine frame between a first and a second position, and that incorporates at least one pneumatic unit. A coupling member may be mounted in a tiltable manner relative to an axis, and in one embodiment, the coupling member may connect the pneumatic unit to the working component. The coupling member may be arranged at least in part within a piston of the pneumatic unit and may be mounted in a linearly adjustable manner along the axis.

Abstract: A chamber conveyor belt machine having a machine frame, a chamber cover with two or more columns and a lifting device for lifting the chamber cover. The lifting device may include a safety system that includes a latching rail that cooperates with a latching hook disposed on at least one of the two columns. The safety system may include one or more sensors for determining whether the lifting device is working correctly or is in a failure condition. The safety system may prevent the chamber conveyor belt machine from operating if a failure condition is sensed.

Abstract: A blowing assembly for a sealing unit of a packaging device is provided comprising a housing and at least one blowing element which is movable relative to said housing between a first position, in which it is lowered at least partially into said housing, and a second position in which it at least partially projects above a surface of said housing. Also provided is a method for removing excess packing material from a blowing assembly for a sealing unit being provided in a packaging device.

Abstract: A lifting device for the movement of a chamber upper part of a chamber conveyor belt machine, the lifting device having first and second lifting mechanisms. The first lifting mechanism may be driven by a motorized drive, and the second lifting mechanism may be driven by an adjusting cylinder. The lifting device may further include a connection element for coupling the two lifting mechanisms.
