A system for applying a fastening material to a substrate is provided. The system may include a first material source including the substrate. The substrate may define a first length extending from a first edge to a second edge and the first material source may feed the substrate in a first direction transverse to the first length. The system may additionally include a second material source including the fastening material. The fastening material may define a second length extending from a third edge to a fourth edge, whereby the second length is substantially equal to the first length and the second material source feeds the fastening material in a second direction transverse to the second length. The system may also include an applicator system that secures the fastening material to the substrate.

A system and method for labeling empty transit bags may include applying labels on bag-forming material in a roll form and then sealing and cutting the bag forming material to form individual bags. The size of the bags can be varied to provide a better fit for goods that are subsequently inserted into the bags. Labeling may be done by pre-printed labels provided in a roll stock, or may be blank labels provided in a roll stock that are printed by a printer of the system. Labeling bags when they are initially formed eliminates the need to manually label bags when they are filled with goods.

A bottom-gusseted package is disclosed which includes a bottom gusset positioned transversely of a longitudinal axis of the package, and a top sleeve portion including a recloseable fastener provided at the top of the package. In the illustrated embodiment, the top sleeve portion includes a peel seal positioned above the recloseable fastener. This seal desirably acts to close the two layers of the top sleeve portion at the top of the package for a neat and aesthetically pleasing appearance. The top sleeve portion can also include a frangible region, and at least one grip strip on the interior of the top sleeve portion. The configuration of the package, and its method of formation, permit use with associated form, fill, and seal equipment.

The invention describes a pouch-type bag, with a first wall and with a second wall, which comprise paper and which are connected to one another via side edges, so that a filling space is provided, wherein the second wall, viewed in the longitudinal direction of the pouch, protrudes beyond the first wall, with two ends, wherein a base is arranged at one end, which base comprises at least one envelope area of the second wall, wherein the envelope area is folded over about a first crease line at least onto parts of the first wall, wherein an opening is provided at the other end, via which opening the filling space is accessible, wherein one of the walls comprises a sealing area which can be folded over about a second crease line onto the outside of the other wall and can be fastened there by means of an adhesive element applied to the sealing area.

The sealing area comprises a tear-off aid between the second crease line and the adhesive element, with which the sealing area can be at least partially severed to allow renewed access to the filling space.

A system including a liner implement that is configured to provide a lining for at least a receptacle, the liner implement includes an upper edge component having an outer surface portion and an inner surface portion. A retention strip implement engages the upper edge component, to tighten the upper edge component around an upper opening of the receptacle. A first end segment of the retention strip implement is configured to engage the outer surface portion of the liner implement. A second end segment is configured to engage the inner surface portion of the liner implement being operable for tightening the upper edge component around an upper element of said receptacle. An adhesive free area is configured to be operable for grasping during the engagement of the second end segment adhesive with the inner surface portion of the liner implement upper edge component.

The present invention discloses a tearing structure of a tear strip and its manufacturing device and manufacturing method. During the process of manufacturing the bag, the bow defined by the pull-up portion is relatively flat. It does not upwarp or interfere with other devices, causing equipment damage or bag waste. The junctions of the pull-up portion are formed by the unevenness of the cutter, which can be used as anti-counterfeiting and anti-theft function. It is judged whether the pull-up portion is opened by the connection of the dotted line of the bow. The inverted buckled structure is formed at a bottom of the bag body and the organ surface is not opened, which is more favorable for sucker grabbing. The second cutter has a square serrated incision to avoid the entire cut-through, thereby solving the problem that the fall off between the pull-up portion and the tear strip caused by overcut in the past.

Punched and incised portions can be formed properly, in which it is not necessary to replace an anvil depending on a type of a sheet material. A punching unit 51 comprises: a punching blade 50 for punching a first panel material 11, a second panel material 12, an open tape and a mounting base portion so as to form a punching portion; a incising portion 51 for incising the second panel material 12 and the mounting base portion disposed on the open tape so as to form a incising portion; and an adjusting portion 54 for adjusting a first gap 56 in a punching direction 5Z between edges 50A and 51A of the punching and incising blades 50 and 51.

In the preferred embodiments, the present invention provides substantially improved slit sheet cushioning products by advantageously combining novel paper properties with novel slit patterns for improved features and characteristics. In some illustrative and non-limiting example embodiments, cushioning products of the present invention can include, e.g., a novel slit sheet material in combination with extensible paper employed as, e.g., a cushioning pad or as cushioning within an envelope product, wherein the cushioning product can be substantially more resilient, but, yet, e.g., thinner for better utilization of space.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, a process for producing a flexible pouch is provided. The process includes placing a capillary precursor element (CPE) between two opposing flexible films. The flexible films define a common peripheral edge. The CPE comprises an array of pins sandwiched between two opposing polymeric strips. The process includes positioning a first side of the CPE at a first side of the common peripheral edge and positioning a second side of the CPE at a second side of the common peripheral edge. The process includes first sealing, at a first seal condition, (i) the opposing polymeric strips to each other to form a matrix, and (ii) sealing the matrix to the two opposing flexible films. The process includes removing the array of pins from the matrix to form an in situ microcapillary strip.
