A method of manufacturing a glass resin laminated body includes a step of sticking a glass film on a resin film via an adhesive layer while holding the glass film and the resin film between a first roller that presses against the resin film and a second roller that is disposed opposite to the first roller and that presses against the glass film. A ratio of an elastic modulus P1 of a surface layer of the first roller to an elastic modulus P2 of the resin film P1/P2 satisfies a relation of 3×10.sup.−3≤P1/P2≤1.0.

A production machine for the production of collapsible pouches having a fitment. The machine has a fitment sealing station with an impulse sealing device comprising a first jaw and a second jaw and with an actuator device configured to move the first and second jaws relative to one another between an opened position and a clamped position, as well as a cooling device configured to cool each of the first and second jaws. The fitment sealing station is configured to perform an impulse sealing cycle.

A machine includes an inflation arrangement, a sealing arrangement, and a tensioning device. The inflation arrangement provides air at a first pressure to inflate a first web of a first type of inflatable material, provides air at a second pressure to inflate a second web of a second type of inflatable material, receives the first and second webs, and aligns the first and second webs on the machine. The first pressure is different from the second pressure. The sealing arrangement seals the first and second types of inflatable material. The tensioning device provides a first tensioning force to the first web as the first web moves between the inflation and sealing arrangements and provides a second tensioning force to the second web as the second web moves between the inflation and sealing arrangements. The first tensioning force is different from the second tensioning force.

An electric heating device includes a control portion adapted to control electric energy supplied to a heater, based on a before-heating temperature, which is a temperature of at least one of an object, the heater and a heat dissipation portion before the heater generates heat, the control portion is adapted to calculate the temperature of the object, based on the before-heating temperature and the electric energy supplied to the heater.

Tool (1) for applying a film onto a target object under the action of heat and/or pressure, comprising a support (11) of a first material and a bar (21) of a second, elastic material, wherein the bar is arranged on the support, and wherein the bar has at least one area (W) that is curved outwards.

A method and apparatus for sealing a plastic enclosure is provided. The apparatus includes a handle including elements pivotally coupled together at a first end. The apparatus also includes a heating element positioned along an inner surface of an element and connected to a power source where a longitudinal axis of the heating element is oriented parallel with a longitudinal axis of the element. Plastic material including first and second plastic layers is positioned at an interface between the second elements. Upon pivoting the first elements from an open position to a closed position the heating element increases a temperature at the interface to melt the plastic material and form a seal between the first and second plastic layers.

A pressure element for a sealing device includes a sealing member and a countersealing member facing one another and configured to be pressed against one another to seal therebetween a tube of packaging material adapted to be filled with a pourable product. The pressure element comprises a fitting portion configured to be fitted to the countersealing member and a contact portion defining a contact surface facing, in use, the sealing member and configured to interact with a sealing element of the sealing member to press and seal the tube therebetween. The pressure element comprises at least one engagement element configured to cooperate with a complementary engagement element carried by the countersealing member to guide the pressure element according to a predetermined orientation during fitting of the pressure element to the countersealing member.

A radially expansible press plunger has a base plate, a first expansion tool and a second expansion tool. The first expansion tool and the second expansion tool are movable in relation to each other in the axial direction. The first expansion tool has at least one inclined plane surface. The second expansion tool has at least one inclined plane surface corresponding to the at least one inclined plane surface on the first expansion tool. Each inclined plane surface on the first expansion tool contacts and applies pressure to the corresponding inclined plane surface of the second expansion tool when the expansible press plunger is in the radially expanded state. An attachment unit for attaching a container sealing element to a container body and a method for attaching a container sealing element to a container body are also disclosed.

Pet food bags, and methods of making the same, contain a seal that resists air exchange more than conventional bags thereby protecting nutritional ingredients that are susceptible to oxidation.

A sealing device for sealing a lid material to sealing areas of a blister web comprises a first, heated sealing tool and a second sealing tool arranged opposite each other and movable relative to each other. A first intermediate element of elastic material is attached to the first sealing tool on a side facing the second sealing tool, and a second intermediate element of thermally-insulating material is attached to the second sealing tool on a side facing the first sealing tool. The first and second sealing tools are movable relative to each other between an opened position and a closed position, in which at least sections of the first intermediate element and of the second intermediate element exert pressure on each other. In the closed sealing position, the first intermediate element rests on the lid material and the second intermediate element rests on lands of the blister web.
