Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2005100161A1] Packaging apparatus includes a supply (1) of interleaving sheet material and means such as a waste roll (6) for moving the sheet material from one operating position to another. The operating positions include a loading position (8) at which products (19) such as sliced food products are deposited on the sheet one-after-another. A cutting position (10) includes a cutting device (24) for separating pieces of the interleaving sheet each carrying an individual product by making a continuous endless cut surrounding each individual product. A collection surface (26) is spaced below the moving sheet (2) such that the removed pieces of sheet and products drop onto the surface to form a stack of products alternating with pieces of interleaving sheet. The cutting device is controlled by cameras (20, 21) which visually inspect the products (19) as they travel between the loading position (8) and the cutting position (10).
