METHOD AND DEVICE FOR BONDING POURERS TO FLAT-TOPPED PARALLELEPIDAL CARTONS FILLED WITH FREE-FLOWING PRODUCTS

摘要

In the method described, the pourers are bonded to the individually fed, sealed cartons in a fully automatic procedure in which malfunctions caused by incorrect positioning and incomplete bonding of the pourers are reliably excluded. In addition, cartons are not permitted to leave the bonding station without a pourer bonded in place. This is achieved by the following steps: cartons standing upright one behind the other are fed in horizontally, the cartons are separated and fed separately to the bonding station subject to availability of a pourer, the pourer is coated with adhesive and bonded and pressed on to a designated area of each carton.
