This invention relates to a method for a packaging machine including a container-forming unit wherein a casing (OP) is made into a substantially finished form. A sidewall blank (O) is placed on the side surface of at least one mandrel or the like, preferably a wrapping mandrel. The first end member (P) of the casing is placed on the end face of the mandrel and attached to the bottom portion of the sidewall blank (O), furthermore, the casing formed on the mandrel (2) is removed from the mandrel (2) to the next operational stage (PV) performed in the packaging machine. The transfer is carried out essentially in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the sidewall blank (O) for the casing (OP). At the transfer stage, the casing (OP) is placed so that the end member (P) is before the sidewall blank (O) in the direction of transfer. The transfer energy for transferring the casing (OP) is generated by means of a gaseous transmission medium. |
