ABSTRACT:
Moving tubing, such as of plastic film, is continuously gusseted in the longitudinal direction, by pulling apart opposed side sections of the tubing, at a local station by application of vacuum force selectively to the surface of the tube, leaving one or more section(s) of the tubing free of such vacuum force, and continuously inwardly tucking such free section(s) by means of gusset blade(s) or the like, or alternately by means of atmospheric force pressing inwardly on said free section(s). In species embodiments of the invention, the vacuum suction is applied by means of opposed perforate belts or rolls through which the vacuum is pulled, and which are operated at essentially the same rate of speed as the forward movement of the tubing.
