Abstract
In a method for manufacturing a packaging container, a web of material including a fiber-containing material is conveyed through a preforming station and through a forming station. In the preforming station, a forming region of the web of material is preformed by cooperation of a preforming die upper part with a preforming die lower part, the forming region being deformed between the preforming die upper part and the preforming die lower part during the preforming. In the forming station, a packaging depression is formed in the preformed forming region by cooperation of a forming die upper part with a forming die lower part, wherein the preformed forming region is deformed between the forming die upper part and the forming die lower part during forming.
Claims18
A method for manufacturing a packaging container, comprising:
- conveying a web of material including a fiber-containing material through a preforming station and through a forming station;
- in the preforming station, preforming a forming region of the web of material by cooperation of a preforming die upper part with a preforming die lower part, the forming region being deformed during the preforming between the preforming die upper part and the preforming die lower part;
- and
- in the forming station, forming a packaging depression in the preformed forming region by cooperation of a forming die upper part with a forming die lower part, the preformed forming region being deformed between the forming die upper part and the forming die lower part during the forming.
An apparatus for manufacturing a packaging container, comprising:
- a preforming station having a preforming die upper part and a preforming die lower part;
- a forming station arranged downstream of the preforming station and having a forming die upper part and a forming die lower part;
- and
- a transport device configured to convey a web of material through the preforming station and through the forming station;
- wherein the preforming die upper part and the preforming die lower part are configured to be moved relative to each other for deforming a forming region of the web of material between each other to preform the forming region;
- wherein the forming die upper part and the forming die lower part are configured to be moved relative to each other for deforming the preformed forming region of the web of material between each other to form a packaging depression;
- and
- wherein the preforming die upper part and the preforming die lower part are configured to create a plurality of bulges in the forming region of the web of material during the preforming.
