Abstract: The invention relates to a horizontal transverse sealing unit, in particular for a horizontal tubular bag machine for sealing at least one tubular film around at least one object to be packaged, having a first and a second rotational axis (18a, 20a) which are parallel to each other and at least two sealing jaw pairs (26a, 28a and 30a, 32a) which are each formed by at least one sealing jaw (26a, 30a) rotating around the first rotation axis (18a) and at least one sealing jaw (28a, 32a) rotating around the second rotation axis (20a), such that, during a sealing process, the sealing jaws (26a, 28a) of a sealing jaw pair (26a, 28a) approach each other and material layers can be sealed between the sealing jaws (26a, 28a) under exertion of pressure. According to the invention, at least two independently drivable sealing drives of the horizontal transverse sealing unit are provided to drive at least two sealing jaw pairs (pair 26a, 28a and pair 30a, 32a) independently of each other.

Abstract: A splicing method serves for connecting an active film web (2) which is wound up on a first reel (4) to a passive film web (3) which is wound up on a further reel (8). The active film web (2) is unwound from the first reel (4) and is fed to at least one processing station. When a remaining film quantity of the active film web (2) is reached on the first reel (4), the active film web (2) is spliced or connected to the passive film web (3), with the result that the passive film web is pulled by the active film web (2) into the at least one processing station and therefore changes from the passive film web into the active film web.
