A method for packaging a pack commodity comprises: providing a support element having an upper side, a lower side and side surfaces; placing a first packaging material sheet on the upper side; arranging the pack commodity on the first packaging material sheet such that a portion of the first packaging material sheet lies between the support element and the pack commodity and that with parts of the first packaging material sheet protruding beyond the pack commodity; placing a second packaging material sheet on an upper side of the pack commodity such that parts of the second packaging material sheet protrude beyond the pack commodity; folding the protruding parts so that they overlap along an overlapping portion on the side surfaces of the support element; applying a peripheral angular contact-pressure device laterally to the overlapping portion and to the upper side of the second packaging material sheet; and bracing the angular contact-pressure device by applying tension straps to generate a contact pressure in the overlapping portion.

A threadlike adhesive sticking apparatus of the present invention includes a nozzle having an inner wall surface defining a cylindrical internal space and a tip end having a tip end opening allowing the internal space to communicate with the outside at one end of the inner wall surface, and a plurality of portions of a peripheral portion surrounding the tip end opening at the tip end function as a pressing unit that presses a threadlike adhesive, which has been allowed to pass through the internal space and has been led out to the outside from the tip end opening, against an object.

An oral pouch product having a soft edge includes an inner filling material enclosed inwardly of at least one seam between opposed layers of porous pouch wrapper. The at least one seam is separated from the periphery of the porous pouch wrapper by an unbonded area of the opposed layers so as to form a soft edge of the pouch wrapper.

A wrapping module and a method for providing a sleeve around a mail item are disclosed. A sheet is folded over a leading edge of each mail item so that a first part of the sheet is folded against an upper side of the mail item and the second part of the sheet is folded against a lower side of the mail item and a third part of the sheet extends in the upstream direction beyond the trailing edge of the mail item. Glue is dispensed on the third part. The mail item is turned around with a turning station having a pendulum so that the third part of the sheet is folded around the mail item so that the third part is connected to the first part by the glue to form the sleeve.

Methods, apparatuses and systems for sealed dimpled film packages. A vacuum box having apertures, a dimpled bottom film sheet is placed on the base plate and an item to be packaged can be placed on the bottom dimpled film sheet. A top film sheet in a clamp frame is heated to a processing temperature and lowered towards the item and dimpled bottom film sheet. Vacuum suction causes sealing of the clamped top film sheet against the package from the base to the perimeter extending at an angle more than 5 degrees. The top film sheet is pulled down using the vacuum suction into contact with the dimpled film sheet from the base perimeter on the dimpled film sheet outward toward the perimeter of the dimpled film sheet forming a seal.

A reversing system for reversing a packing box, an upper surface of which is opened, and from which products are withdrawn, such that a lower surface of the reversed empty packing box is disposed above. A first conveyor transfers an empty packing box, an upper surface of which is opened, from a position at which products are withdrawn from the packing box to a position at which the packing box is reversed. A turning device holds the packing box to be turned about a horizontal rotation axis, and reverses the packing box. A second conveyor carries the reversed packing box to a position at which the bottom surface is opened. The turning device holds two sides, facing each other, among sides of the packing box, and turns and reverses the packing pox using a portion between the holding locations of the two held sides as a rotation axis.

A sealing patch for a polymeric bag includes a carrier, a pressure sensitive adhesive on the carrier and a heat-activated material on the pressure sensitive adhesive. A high-strength polymeric bag is formed from woven tapes and is coated with a polymer material. The sealing patch is positioned on the bag for sealing the bag. A method for sealing a high-strength polymeric bag with a sealing patch and a device for sealing a polymeric bag with a sealing patch are disclosed.
