The invention relates to a device (100) and a method (300) for rotating packaging containers, in particular mailing envelopes (110), by a specified rotational angle while the mailing envelope (110) is being moved forwards on a processing section (160). For this purpose, the mailing envelope (110) is fixed onto a rotary plate (150) of a transport slide (140) by means of suction elements (152), said rotary plate being connected to a transport path (130) which substantially encircles the device and which is mechanically driven. While traversing the processing section (160), the mailing envelope (110) is rotated parallel to the transport path (130) by an angle which is perpendicular to the transport direction during the forwards movement by guiding a lever arm (154) of the rotary plate (150) through a guide cam (190) of a mechanical cam plate (180). After the rotation is carried out and the fixation of the mailing envelope (110) is released, the transport slide (140) traverses a return section (170) and in the process is rotated back to the starting angular position. The proposed device (100) is suitable for use in the process of producing mailing envelopes (110) or comparable flat goods.

METHOD FOR PACKAGING PRODUCTS AND PACKAGING UNITS FOR CARRYING OUT THE METHOD
In a method for packaging products, in particular hygiene products, in packaging bags (27), in which method, after introducing the products into the respective packaging bag (27), the end faces (34) thereof are folded by folding over the end flaps (48) formed in each case at the end faces by the side walls (40), and then welded, wherein the packaging bag (27) is guided, to weld the end faces (34) thereof, in a transport direction through a welding station (36), it is intended to ensure particularly high throughput and production rates and hence a particularly high production speed combined with high reliability. For this purpose, according to the invention, during the folding of the end faces (34), the rear end flap (48) as viewed in the transport direction of the packaging bag (27) is folded over by guiding a folding cam (54) past the packaging bag (27) in the transport direction at a higher speed as viewed in comparison to the transport speed of the packaging bag (27).

DEVICE AND METHOD FOR TRANSVERSELY FOLDING A WEB SECTION AND HYGIENIC TISSUE
By means of a device (2) for transversely folding a web section (70), a web section, in particular a handkerchief, is to be folded to 1/3 of an edge length thereof. This is achieved by using a device (2) having a central folding cylinder (8) and a first and a second pre-crease folding cylinder (14, 20), wherein the respective axes of rotation of the folding cylinders (8, 14, 20) are oriented parallel to each other, wherein the direction of rotation of the central folding cylinder (8) is opposite to the direction of rotation of the first and second pre-crease folding cylinders (14, 20), wherein the folding cylinders (8, 14, 20) each have controllable suction orifices for applying suction to the web section (70). The device has a plurality of ironing shafts, wherein the central folding cylinder (8) has a first suction orifice (82) for transporting the web section (70) to the first pre-crease folding cylinder (14), and wherein the central folding cylinder (8) is provided with a third suction orifice (94) and the first pre-crease folding cylinder (14) is provided with a second suction orifice (88), the suction action of which on the web section (70) creates a 1/3 fold (140) at the front end (76) of said section, and wherein the second pre-crease folding cylinder (20) has a sixth suction orifice (100), the suction action of which on the web section (70) produces a fold in the web section (70), wherein the web section (70) is firmly held on the central folding cylinder (8) by a fourth and a fifth suction orifice (112, 118) in said cylinder. The invention further relates to a corresponding method and to a hygienic tissue.
The invention aims to provide a method for packaging hygiene products in a packaging bag, in which particularly high throughput and production rates and thus a particularly high production speed at a high level of reliability are ensured. Said aim is achieved according to the invention in that the hygiene products to be packaged are enclosed in a bag film tube (4), and the latter is then guided in a transport direction through a first welding station (20) and through a second welding station (34), wherein the bag film tube (4) provided with the hygiene products is welded laterally in a first welding step (20), before the ends thereof are welded in a second welding step (34), and wherein the bag film tube (4) provided with the hygiene products is rotated 90° relative to the transport direction between the welding steps.
An apparatus for stacking flat articles on-edge, comprising a helical drive assembly (1) having spaced-apart helical screws (2) configured to receive the articles (E) on-edge there-between, and to eject the articles (E) towards a stack holding unit (10), wherein the stack holding unit (10) is configured to hold a stack of articles on-edge separately from the helical screws (2), wherein the apparatus includes a first conveyor (5) configured to support lower edges of the articles (E) during transport to the stack holding unit (10).

Device for the memorizing of a number of pre-creasing in a material coat
A device to stamp a number of creases into a material layer is provided, the device comprising a main roller body non-rotationally arranged on a rotating shaft and a number of holding elements sunk into the main roller body that serve to position and/or affix a first foil having a first creasing ridge on the circumferential surface of the main roller body, which is characterized in that a holding device is provided that can be angularly rotated relative to the longitudinal axis of the rotating shaft and that is configured to position and/or affix at least one additional second foil having a second creasing ridge.
A method for producing a cutting or embossing roller having a cutting knife or embossing projection that projects out of the surface of a base body of the roller ensures the greatest possible optimal homogeneity of the cutting knife or the embossing projection, while minimizing production duration and costs. Single-layer or multi-layer application of the cutting knife or the embossing projection onto the roller base body occurs by laser resurfacing welding. Each layer is produced using an additional powdered material, which is melted in a melt bath at the weld point. The heat and/or light radiation emitted by the melt bath is detected, at least during application of each layer. Laser power is controlled or regulated as a function of the heat and/or light radiation emitted by the melt bath, so that melt bath temperature remains essentially constant during application of each layer.
