A sealing station aligned with the infeed lane (20) for receiving the packages to be sealed is employed. A first package (10C) is transported from the infeed lane to the sealing station, the open end of the first package is engaged for sealing operations, and this engagement is maintained for a minimum sealing time while a second package is transported from the infeed lane to the sealing station. The open end of the second package (10D) is engaged for sealing operations, and the engagement is maintained for the minimum desired sealing time while a subsequent package is transported to the sealing station. These steps may then be repeated for subsequent packages. A plurality of sealing rigs moveable between receiving and holding positions may be employed for sealing operations.</p> |
