A packaging apparatus includes a controller configured to control operation of a first conveying unit, a second conveying unit, a first moving unit, and a second moving unit. When a film is loaded onto the first conveying unit and the second conveying unit, the controller causes a first clamp unit to clamp the film delivered from a delivering unit and causes a first feeder portion to convey the film. Simultaneously, while causing a second clamp unit to be released or the second clamp unit to intermittently clamp the film delivered from the delivering unit, the controller causes a second feeder portion to convey the film and also causes the second conveying unit to move in a direction separating from the first conveying unit and, when the second conveying unit reaches a predetermined position, causes the second clamp unit to clamp the film.

An example system includes an advancement mechanism to drive print media into a stacking region, a movable media guide arrangement and a controller. The movable media guide arrangement includes a pair of opposing media guides to receive opposing edges of a print medium therein and a translation mechanism to move the opposing media guides between at least two positions, the at least two positions including a deployed position and a retracted position. The controller is to actuate the translation mechanism to move the opposing media guides into the deployed position when the advancement mechanism transports a print medium into the stacking region and to actuate the translation mechanism to move the opposing media guides to the retracted position to release the print medium.

A packaging apparatus includes a controller configured to control operation of a first conveyance unit, a second conveyance unit, a first moving unit, a second moving unit, and a cutting unit. The controller, after causing the cutting unit to cut a film, causes at least either one of a first clamp unit and a second clamp unit to clamp the cut film and controls operation of at least either one of the first moving unit and the second moving unit so that the distance between the first conveyance unit and the second conveyance unit in a second direction changes.

A secondary battery electrode film and separator supply device configured to: replace a bobbin when an electrode separator is used up by automatically extracting an empty bobbin from a spool, mounting the empty bobbin on a side of a bobbin mount of a bobbin changer, changing the position of a new bobbin mounted on another side by rotating the bobbin mount 180 degrees, and then moving and mounting the new bobbin on the spool; automatically extracting an end of a wound electrode separator through vacuum suction and connecting the end to another electrode separator; and feed a replacing material roll to a moving spool, cut a finishing tap at an end of a material by a predetermined length, and then automatically connect a new separator end of the replacing material roll and an in-use separator end through taping.
