Abstract

A form-fill-seal machine and a method for manufacturing and filling a bag (100) having a drawstring tape or cord. The form-fill-seal machine includes a device to guide a film on the machine. A conveying device positions at least one drawstring tape or cord on the film. A folding device folds the film to form a first sheet and a second sheet of the bag. First and second welding jaws weld the first sheet and the second sheet to close two sides of the bag and leave a third side of the bag open. A filling chute fills the bag by the third side of the bag. Third welding jaws close the bag by sealing the third side.
