<p>Folding element (1) suitable for use in a packaging apparatus in which in operation a strip of packaging material (7) to be fed continuously is guided from a feeding direction over the folding element (1) and, while a shell is formed from the material strip, is guided further from the folding element in a product conveying direction, with the feeding direction and the product conveying direction including an angle. The folding element (1) comprises a front face (12) extending in the feeding direction and a top face (17) extending in the product conveying direction, over which front and top faces (12, 17) the material strip (7) moves in operation, the front face (12) being bounded on opposite sides by a fold forming edge (13) which intersects the intersecting line of the front and top faces (12, 17) in a folding point, in which folding point in operation folds are formed in the material strip (7). A packaging apparatus comprising such folding element (1). <IMAGE></p> |
