When sausage casings closed at one end are filled and closed on a combined filling and closing machine in the making of sausages which in their final shape have a non-circular cross-section, the sausage casings are filled to less than their entire volumetric capacity because, e.g., a rectangular cross-section has a larger perimeter than a circular cross-section having the same area. In order to exclude air from the unfilled portion of such sausage casings as far as possible and to permit the processing of small and large sausage casings and the filling of sausage meat into a sausage casing consisting of a continuous tubing, part of the sausage casing is initially filled with the intended quantity of sausage meat. The displacing shears of the closing machine are then almost completely closed. Thereafter the filled sausage is compressed by means of pressing jaws before the sausage casing is closed. The additional sausage casing material which is required to accommodate the displaced sausage meat is pulled along between the displacing shears at the same time.
