Abstract (en)
[origin: EP1149767A1] A method for providing a package with a top film in a wrapping machine (10), whereby an object (12) to be wrapped is wrapped with thin plastic film band (22). With the wrapping action stopped, a top film is brought over the object by pulling from a roll (31) placed outside the wrapping station (11) a length of top film band (32) into the wrapping station and severing the band to form a top film sheet of a desired length, which is brought to a position above the object. The top film sheet is placed onto the object during the wrapping operation without stopping the wrapping action. The wrapping machine (10) comprises a film fetching apparatus (30) placed in the middle of a wrapping station and having a motion mechanism (35) which can move in a horizontal direction outside the wrapping station and which, being provided with a guide rail (36) and slide (37) mechanism, pulls a top film sheet (33) from a roll to a position above the object. <IMAGE>
