A package and method for opening the package are disclosed. The package includes a first film and a second film forming an enclosure and at least one tab area and defining a package periphery, the enclosure defining an interior volume configured to receive a product. The package further includes first and second breachable bubbles formed within first and second tab portions of the at least one tab area. Upon application of pressure by a user, the first and second breachable bubbles breach. The package may be alternated between a first position, wherein the first tab portion and the second tab portion are substantially sealed from each other to facilitate breaching, and a second position, wherein the first tab portion and the second tab portion are in fluid communication with each other.

The present invention refers to a packaging machine and a method, wherein one embodiment of a protective device comprises a protective hood and the protective hood is lifted around a shaft comprising two rolls, and is shifted by means of guides in the protective hood on the rolls.

A packaging machine comprising a sealing station with a sealing tool, a side frame and at least a first as well as a second upper protective cover respectively for placement onto a top side of the side frame during the manufacturing operations, wherein each of the two protective covers form a body with a lid, multiple side walls as well as a bottom. In one embodiment, the two protective covers can be stacked on one another, wherein at least one of the two protective covers forms at least one stack stop on the lid to which an edge of the floor of the other protective cover can be coupled in a removable way if the two protective covers are stacked on top of one another. In one embodiment, the packaging machine may be a deep-drawing packaging machine or a tray-sealing machine.

A container for food products is defined by a tray (2), which is made of a polymer material, has a bottom wall (3), a side wall (4), and an upper peripheral edge (5), and is provided with a glue layer (16) directly applied on the polymer material of the upper peripheral edge (5) to lock a closing lid (6) on the upper peripheral edge (5).

A packaging includes a base foil and a cover foil, the base foil and/or the cover foil being formed from a water-soluble foil web. The apparatus includes a liquid supply for a water-containing liquid, at least one moistening unit, and a pressing device. The moistening unit is formed as a spraying device for contactlessly spraying the liquid onto the foil web and is positioned at a distance (a) from the foil web. The spraying device includes an electromechanical spraying system with a row of outlet nozzles for spraying the liquid onto the foil web. The water-soluble foil web is supplied to the sealing apparatus. A water-containing liquid is sprayed onto the foil web via the spraying device. The cover foil is led onto the base foil and is pressed and sealed together therewith, in the state in which they are wetted with the liquid, via a pressing device.

A process for producing a blister strip is provided. The blister strip contains two or more different formulations of powdered medicament for inhalation. The blister strip has a base in which blister cavities are formed. A first set of cavities each contain a first medicament formulation and are covered by a first lid material. A second set of cavities each contain a second medicament formulation and are covered by a second, separate lid material.

An order fulfillment system is described that includes a carton and a mover configured to carry the carton throughout the system. The carton is a preformed, five-sided container with flanges extending outwardly from edges thereof. The mover includes a depression in a top surface thereof that nestably receives the carton therein. The mover may include a vacuum system to aid retention of the carton therein. The mover and carton may include indicia to enable identification and tracking thereof throughout the fulfillment process. A lidding process applies a lid that is adhered to the flanges of the carton and includes identifying indicia thereon. The system provides identification and verification of items placed in the carton and can be easily integrated into existing manual and automated fulfillment systems. A manual system allows a user to manually pick and load cartons and attach a carton lid via an adhesive.

A method for packaging Cannabis includes placing a first Cannabis mixture into a first capsule mold of a tray. The method also includes pressing the first Cannabis mixture into a first inside surface of the first capsule mold to form a first Cannabis puck. The first inside surface is rounded in two directions. The method also includes attaching a first cover to the tray to cover the first Cannabis puck in the first capsule mold.

An apparatus for applying a lid (2) to a support (3) containing a product. The apparatus (1) comprises a supporting element (10), having a contact portion (13), and a closing element (11), having a fixing portion (17), which are movable between a home position and a working position, in which the closing element (11) is partly inserted into the seat (12) having one or more lateral surfaces (16) defining the contact portion (13). When the two elements (10), (11) are in the working position, the fixing portion (17) is in the seat (12) and the two portions (17), (13) are coupled for clamping a part of the lid (2) and a part of at least one lateral wall (5). The fixing portion (17) is configured to fix the part of the lid (2) and the part of the lateral wall (5) which are clamped.

The invention relates to a tray sealer with a gripper system comprising a pivot mechanism with vertically disposed pivot axles to move gripper arms relative to each other and parallel to a transport plane.
