Abstract
A packaging material sealing device includes a first sealing jaw and at least a second sealing jaw and at least one movement unit, which includes a first actuator and at least a second actuator for actuating the two sealing jaws along a sealing direction, and at least one control unit. In at least one operating state, the control unit controls the two actuators for setting an asymmetrical sealing force for the two sealing jaws.
Claims22
A packaging material sealing device (12) comprising:
- a first sealing jaw (16) and at least a second sealing jaw (18);
- at least one movement unit (20), which comprises a first actuator (26) and at least a second actuator (28) for actuating the two sealing jaws (16, 18) along a sealing direction (30);
- and
- at least one control unit (32),
- wherein in at least one operating state the at least one control unit (32) controls the two actuators (26, 28) for setting an asymmetrical sealing force for the two sealing jaws (16, 18),
- wherein the at least one movement unit (20) comprises a first drive shaft (36), which is connected to the first actuator (26) and allows movement of first sections (50, 52) of the two sealing jaws (16, 18), and at least a second drive shaft (38), which is connected to the second actuator (28) and allows movement of second sections (60, 62) of the two sealing jaws (16, 18).
