The invention relates to a system for manufacturing medical pouches and a method for manufacturing medical pouches in a system, said pouch being made from two layers of plastic film and at least one component per pouch, the system comprising a group of positioning aids for the components as well as a group of supports for the positioning aids, the positioning aids being supported on the supports which are conveyed in an endless path with the aid of a guiding mechanism, the system further comprising a component application station designed to bring a component, which has been introduced into the station by a positioning aid with the aid of a support, into a joining connection with the plastic film. The invention is characterized in that on the endless path, the supports are alternately guided first along a process run and then along a return run; the supports are placed at a certain distance from one another in the process run, are accelerated to increase the distance therebetween when the supports travel along the return run, and are decelerated to reduce the distance therebetween again when the supports intermittently travel along the process run. As a result, the system requires fewer product-specific parts.
Method for manufacturing medical bags in a plant from two layers of plastic film and at least one component per bag, with an assemblage of positioning aids for the components, and with an assemblage of carriers for the positioning aids, the positioning aids being carried by the carriers, the carriers being transported in an endless path by means of a guide, the plant having a component application station adapted to couple by a joining the component with the plastic film, which has been placed in the station by the positioning aid by means of the carrier, with the plastic film;
Plant for manufacturing medical bags from two layers of plastic film and at least one component per bag, with an assemblage of positioning aids for the components, and with an assemblage of carriers for the positioning aids, where the positioning aids are carried by the carriers, the plant having a guide for the carriers which is adapted to move the carriers in an endless path, the plant having a component application station which is adapted to couple the component, which has been placed in the station by the positioning aid by means of the carrier, with the plastic film;
