Abstract
A bag-making and packaging machine packages, in bags made from a film, articles discharged and dropped from an article discharge apparatus. The bag-making and packaging machine has a transverse sealing mechanism, a receiving member, a vertical moving mechanism, and a control unit. The transverse sealing mechanism transversely seals a film tube. The receiving member contacts an outer surface of the film tube above the transverse sealing mechanism and receives the articles A that drop through the inside of the film tube. The vertical moving mechanism moves the transverse sealing mechanism and the receiving member in the up and down direction. The control unit switches between a first mode and a second mode. In the second mode, the receiving member contacts the outer surface of the film tube at a lower height position than in the first mode.
