Abstract (en)

In a flowpacking procedure the articles (4) to be packed are supplied a mutual spacing to a running sheet web (2), which is caused to be folded up and length welded (10) to form a tubular casing (6), which in a cross welding station (14) is provided with cross welding lines (20), between which the successively packaged articles can be separated. By the cross welding is effected a rapid pressing together of the sheet tube, whereby an undesirable inflation of the packing of the foremost article may occur. According to the invention care is taken to provide a perforation in the web between the cross weldings (20), e.g. by way of a hole (28), whereby the air may escape through the perforation without giving rise to the said undesired inflation of the finished article packings. <IMAGE>
