Abstract (en)
[origin: US4793118A] The invention generally relates to a method for ordering a coherent packaging line for storing in storage units or for intermediate buffering during a packaging process, wherein prior to the cutting into product portions, the packaging line discharged at the full process speed is wound onto winding plates and the winding formed is intermediately stored, so that then further process stages can be performed thereon, e.g. a singling or cutting at a random time and at a random process speed. The apparatus performing the method has a winding plate drive and winding plates drivable by it for winding a coherent packaging line, together with a supply mechanism for supplying empty winding plates to the winding plate drive and a conveying means for supplying a packaging line to the winding plates. Several supply means can be associated with one winding plate drive.
