Abstract
The present invention relates to a packing method and an apparatus, wherein a substance to be packed is carried from a carrying-in section in which the substance is carried to a position under a packing section where a film stands by in a horizontally stretched state. The substance to be packed is lifted to the film and is covered on the upper surface with the film, and the end portions of the film are folded under the bottom portion of the substance to be packed. The packing method and packing apparatus are for a no-tray system for directly packing a substance to be packed without a tray. An article carried in and placed on a carrying-in section is received on a carrying base, and the carrying base is moved to a packing section where a film is drawn and stretched, to carry the substance to be packed to the packing section, thereby making it possible to carry the substance to be packed to the packing section for packing without damaging the article in not only a tray type packing form but also in a no-tray packing form.
