  • the replacement of the sealing plate is done by means of simple handles, which are screwed into corresponding holes. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, these handles should also be used to remove the insert and insert the tool part.
  • the hot to be sealed resp. product to be welded requires it to fumigate a bag. For example, this applies to the packaging of medical equipment that must be kept as sterile as possible.
  • the tool part for holding bags is connected to a gas supply line and / or a vacuum line. It is also contemplated to associate the tool portion for holding pouches with the machine controller via a corresponding interface to allow the machine controller to detect whether a tool portion for holding pouches or an insert for holding containers is in the corresponding receptacle.
  • the receptacle for receiving the insert or tool part should be a recess.
  • This trough is preferably located on rails on which the trough can be moved under the sealing plate.
  • the sealing plate preferably has a matching sealing contour, which matches the inserted tool and is screwed to the heating plate.

  • This terminal strip has the advantage that it is pressed with the product of the bag in the front area below the later seal against the surface of the support plate after inserting the bag, so that the bag is absolutely smooth in this area. This improves the sealing seam and, above all, ensures that the sealing seam remains tight.
  • these pins are small piston rods of pneumatic cylinders, so that the pins can be retracted by operating the pneumatic cylinder.
  • the pins or the pneumatic cylinders are each assigned a sensor, via which the position of the terminal block can be detected. A sealing process is released via the machine control only when the sensors signal the machine control that the terminal strip rests on the surface of the support plate with intermediate storage of a smooth bag surface. If, on the other hand, the terminal strip presses, for example, on a product to be sealed, then a sealing process can not be initiated.
  • On or on the support plate are also the above-mentioned nozzles for gassing the bag, wherein the bag has an opening which allows easy insertion of the nozzles.
  • the bags be vacuumized.
  • the tool part is connected to a vacuum source.
