Abstract
A method is provided for the pretreatment of superposed layers of thermosplastic film which are to be heat sealed together, longitudinally, along a predetermined area. The film layers to be heat sealed are preheated utilizing heated air along a defined, continuous longitudinally extending area of the film layers. The preheated area is subsequently passed through a slit-seal device which simultaneously severs the preheated film layers and seals the severed edges together. The method is particularly useful for the slit-sealing of a continuously advancing flattened tube of thermoplastic which is characterized by having a non-uniform gauge in cross-section.
