Üblicherweise sind in der Verpackungsmaschine Beleimungsaggregate installiert, mit denen über Düsen Kaltleim auf die zu verklebenden Bereiche der Umhüllung aufgebracht wird. Bei Betriebsunterbrechungen müssen die Leimaggregate ausgebaut und ausgewechselt werden. Insgesamt hat sich der Einsatz von (Kalt-)Leimaggregaten unmittelbar im sensiblen Bereich der Faltmechanik nicht bewährt. The production of perpackages with wrappings made of thin packaging material, especially paper, causes problems when Folding or closing flaps with each other or with walls of the Packs are glued. Usually are in the packaging machine Gluing units installed with which Cold glue via nozzles on the areas of the wrapping to be glued is applied. In the event of business interruptions the glue units are removed and replaced. All in all has the use of (cold) glue units immediately in the sensitive area of the folding mechanism not proven.
