摘要

The device (1) has a transport equipment for transporting tube pieces in a transportation direction (X), and running transverse to an extending direction (Z). The tube pieces are conveyed in a horizontal position, and an opening mechanism is provided for opening an end of one of the tube pieces to form bottoms. The opening mechanism includes a material layer separating and folding unit for separating and folding material layers, which are foldable away from each other around 90 degrees, so that the opened bottom lies in a plane of the tube pieces. An independent claim is also included for a method for manufacturing a bag from tube pieces.
