Abstract (en)

A strip-pack apparatus (1) is equipped with conveyors (3, 3c, 4), an affixing unit (9), an operating mode selection switch (30) and a control unit (20), is positioned between a bag making and packaging machine (P) and a cartoning machine (C), and manufactures a strip pack (SP). The conveyors (3, 3c, 4) selectively move products (X) that have been supplied from the bag making and packaging machine (P) to an affixing position or the cartoning machine (C). The affixing unit (9) affixes the products (X) to a tape (T) in the affixing position. The operating mode selection switch (30) receives a selection between a strip pack manufacturing mode and a product passing mode. The product passing mode is a mode that causes the conveyors (3, 3c, 4) to move the products (X) to the cartoning machine (C) without moving the products (X) to the affixing position. The control unit (20) controls the driving of the conveyors (3, 3c, 4) and the affixing unit (9) depending on the mode that has been selected.
