Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2020099088A2] The present invention relates to a packing apparatus for packing a food product (4) in a packing tray composed of at least two part-trays (5, 6), wherein the packing apparatus has a folding device for folding a flange (9), which is formed by mutually opposite and at least partially adjoining edge portions (7, 8) protruding from the respective part-tray (5, 6), and a sealing device for sealing the flange (9). To simplify the sealing and folding device and the complex kinematics thereof, the packing apparatus is characterized in that the sealing device is provided by a part of the folding device and is configured in such a way that a sealing seam (31) is generated when a distal flange portion (12) is turned up in the course of the folding. The invention further relates to a method for sealing and folding a flange (9) of a packing tray for a food product (4).
