A pair of parallel conveyor belts 20, 21 are spaced apart less than the width of a web 11 of packaging material to be transported, but greater than the width of a package to be wrapped in blanks 10 severed from the web. Suction holes 24 in the inner edges of the belts hold the overlapping outer edges of the web. A transverse knife 27 slightly wider than the web passes through oblong cutouts 30, 31 in the inner edges of the belts to sever the blanks, which are subsequently U-wrapped around packages 13 individually pushed between the belts. |
