  • connection between the foils 8, 10 can be stronger than in the areas where only one seal 32 or only one pre-seal 29 is present. This makes it possible for the second film 10 to tear in the region of the gap 34. The location and the direction of a tear in the upper film 10 can therefore be influenced in a targeted manner.
  • the pre-sealing area 27, its sub-area 28 and the sealing area 31 are not shown again for the sake of better clarity.
  • a person skilled in the art recognizes, however, that analogously to the overlap areas 35 between the preseal 29 and the seal 32, overlap areas between the preseal 27, in particular the partial area 28, and the seal area 32 can be provided.

Abstract

L'invention concerne une machine (1) d'emballage par thermoformage destinée à créer des matériaux (12) d'emballage à partir d'un premier film (8) et d'un second film (10), chacun du premier et du second film (8, 10) étant transporté, de préférence de manière minutée, à travers la machine (1) de thermoformage le long d'un trajet (R1, R2) de transport. La machine (1) d'emballage par thermoformage comporte un poste (3) de scellage qui est configuré pour sceller le second film (10) au premier film (8) dans une région (31) de scellage, un poste (22) de découpe de film qui est conçu pour pratiquer au moins deux découpes (26) dans le second film (10) sur le trajet (R2) de transport en amont du poste (3) de scellage, et un poste (23) de pré-scellage qui est conçu pour sceller une région (27) de pré-scellage du second film (10) au moins partiellement sur le premier film (8) sur le trajet (R2) de transport en amont du poste de scellage (2), les découpes (26) étant disposées dans la région (27) de pré-scellage.
