Provided is a method for packaging piece good groupings, in which a plurality of piece goods, particularly containers, are at least partially interconnected by means of a first connection, wherein at least two-piece goods of this plurality are directly interconnected by the connection. According to the embodiment, this plurality of piece goods connected by the first connection is packaged with a second connection in the form of a second wrapping element, and said plurality of piece goods connected by a first connection is conveyed by a conveyor device to a packaging unit and enclosed, particularly wrapped, with the second wrapping element by said packaging unit.
A method for packaging piece good groupings, wherein a plurality of piece goods and in a form of containers is delivered by a transport device along a predetermined transport direction, and this plurality of piece goods is packaged by a first wrapping element, wherein the wrapping element surrounds the plurality of piece goods at least partially and wherein the plurality of piece goods packaged with the first wrapping element is packaged with a second wrapping element and for this purpose the plurality of piece goods packaged with the first wrapping element is wrapped by a packaging device with the second wrapping element which is designed as a stretchable film element, wherein this wrapping preferably takes place about a longitudinal axis defined by the transport direction, characterised in that the first wrapping element and the second wrapping element are attached to the piece goods in such a way that the piece goods are completely enclosed by the entirety of the first wrapping element and the second wrapping element, wherein at least one further piece good is delivered to the plurality of piece goods packaged with the first wrapping element, and the grouping of piece goods packaged with the first wrapping element and the at least one further piece good is wrapped with the second wrapping element.
A piece good grouping with a plurality of piece goods in the form of containers, which are at least partially surrounded by a first wrapping element and which are at least partially surrounded by a second wrapping element, wherein at least the second wrapping element is designed as a stretchable plastic film and wherein the first wrapping element and the second wrapping element abut against one another in sections and wherein the first wrapping element abuts directly against at least one of the piece goods, wherein a first geometric line extending in a radial direction of at least one first piece good passes through both wrapping elements and at least one second geometric line extending in a radial direction of at least one second piece good of this piece good grouping passes through only one wrapping element and/or the first wrapping element and the second wrapping element are attached to the piece goods in such a way that the piece goods are completely enclosed by the entirety of the first wrapping element and the second wrapping element.
An apparatus for producing a piece good grouping with a transport device which transports a plurality of piece goods in a predetermined transport direction, with a first packaging device, which applies a first wrapping element to the plurality of piece goods in such a way that this first wrapping element at least partially surrounds the plurality of piece goods, with a second packaging device, which applies a second wrapping element designed as a film element to the plurality of piece goods provided with the first wrapping element, wherein this second packaging device is suitable and intended to wrap the plurality of piece goods provided with the first film element with the second film element, wherein the apparatus has an adapting device which is arranged in the transport direction between the first packaging device and the second packaging device, which changes a geometric position of the first plurality of piece goods relative to the transport device and which adds at least one further piece good to the plurality of piece goods provided with the first film element and/or the second packaging device is configured in such a way that openings remaining during the wrapping of the piece goods are completely covered by the second wrapping element.
