Abstract
Devices used in making bags or otherwise carrying out operations on a web of material, such as a plastic web are repositioned based upon a measure of the repeat length of the intermittent advance of the web and comparison of the actual value of that advance with a setpoint value and in accordance with the product of the resulting error and the position of the device along the path of the web. The repositioning can use a positive coupling between a motor on the device and the path either via a rack and pinion for a spindle and nut.
