Apparatus for the manual or machine production of a tube-like packaging material and packing station

A system comprising:

• an apparatus for manual or machine production of a tube-like packaging material having a roll longitudinal axis and forming an inner hollow space or to a paper strip folded to a Leporello stack defining an upper side, from which the paper strip can be drawn for forming the packaging material, the apparatus including:
• a guiding chute with an opening configured to eject the packaging material from a paper supply unit arranged in an ejection position, wherein the guiding chute includes an inner contour narrowing towards the opening in an ejection direction,
• a receiving arrangement configured to encompass, at least partly circumferentially, the paper supply unit, wherein another paper supply unit is arrangeable sequentially behind the paper supply unit in the ejection direction, and
• a movable transport including a translationally movable linear conveyor and being configured to displace one or more paper supply units in the ejection direction, wherein the movable transport is located at least partly in a guide arranged adjacent to the receiving arrangement;
• and
• a paper supply unit of the paper supply units configured to be conveyed in the receiving arrangement, the paper supply unit having an axial length, wherein the paper supply unit is movable in the ejection direction from a first position to a second position by the movable transport by at least the axial length.
