First and second panel webs are superposed on each other and fed in their longitudinal direction. After a side gusset is temporarily fixed to the second panel web, the side gusset is divided by a dividing device to form a pair of open edges. The open edges are aligned with a line of weakness of the first panel web when the first and second panel webs are superposed on each other. The side gusset is temporarily sealed to the first and second panel webs by a temporary seal device to form temporary sealed sections. The first panel web is guided to be divided along its line of weakness and to be folded on the sides of its division edges. This guiding of the panel web and the temporary sealed sections cause the side gusset to be opened at the open edges to form open surfaces. An end face web is then disposed on the panel web to be superposed on folded parts of the panel web and the open surfaces of the side gusset.

Bag making apparatus and bag making method

The product efficiency of bags each with an end face part is increased. A panel webs is guided to be divided along a line of weakness of the panel web and to be folded along division edges of the panel web. This guiding of the first panel and temporary sealed sections cause a side gusset to be cut open along a line of weakness of the side gusset such that open surfaces are formed. After the forming of the open surfaces, an end face web is supplied to be superposed on folded parts of the panel web and the open surfaces of the side gusset.

Bag making method and bag making apparatus

A first feed device adjusts an intermittent feed amount thereof based on output of a first sensor such that a design position of a first panel is aligned with a first fixing position during every pause phase of an intermittent feed cycle. A second feed device adjusts tension of a second panel and an intermittent feed amount of a feed unit based on output of at least one second sensor such that a design position of the second panel is aligned with a second fixing position during every pause phase of an intermittent feed cycle. A third feed device adjusts an intermittent feed amount thereof based on output of a third sensor such that the design position of the first panel is aligned with the second fixing position during every pause phase of an intermittent feed cycle.
