ABSTRACT:
Method and apparatus for continuously and automatically packaging preferably particulate food in successive fixed amounts by using a ribbon-like film, preferably of a synthetic resin. The film is continuously payed out from a roll and is progressively wrapped around a cylindrical forming chute with the help of a plate, while longitudinally heat sealing the overlap of the opposite lateral edges of the wrapped film, to change it into a tubular form, charging the food thereinto from above the chute, heat sealing the top and bottom of a food receiving region of the tubular film, and cutting off that region from the continuous tubular film. The apparatus allows the continuous production of bags or enclosures, from the initial ribbon-like and later tubular film, charged with the food, in a simple cyclical operation.
