A method and a device are disclosed for making thin plastic films having two or more layers, which are subdivided and separated in the form of tubular bags for portioned reception of different products, wherein the plastic films are provided with welding seams running substantially transversely to the longitudinal direction with predetermined spacing between one another to form bag-like containers, and the containers are separated from one another by a cutting or separating process, the method being characterized by the steps: a) welding the films with predetermined spacing by means of an ultrasound welding process, maintaining a defined, film-dependent distance between a processing tool and a counter tool while welding; and b) separating the tubular bags welded in this way by means of a mechanical cutting process, with or without reduced ultrasound excitation at the point of the respective weld seams.

Method and device for making tubular bags of thin plastic films by means of an ultrasound welding process

In a device for processing flat products using a processing tool which processes the product between the tool and a counter-tool, the processing tool is supported by an ultrasonic sonotrode. The processing tool performs a processing movement together with an ultrasonic sonotrode, wherein the processing movement results in a partial separation of the flat product.
