Abstract

The present invention relates to a foil-bag producing and packing apparatus comprising at least two feed means for feeding foil material, a connecting means for connecting the foil material fed, the connecting portions—in a direction transverse to the feed direction—extending over the foil width, a cutting means for cutting the connected foil bags along the connecting portions, and a storing device which directly after the cutting process stores the foil bags substantially in the direction of movement of the cutting edge and stacks the same in a receiving means. Moreover, the invention comprises a corresponding method for producing and packing foil bags.
