Definitions

  • the invention is in particular the following in connection with Fig. 1 problem described.
  • Fig. 1 shows a schematic representation of a sealing station S '.
  • the sealing station S ' comprises an upper sealing tool part SO' and a lower sealing tool part SU ', which can be brought together by means of a lifting movement H' to form an airtight sealed sealing chamber SK '.
  • gassing offset printing previously had to be calculated manually during a setting process and entered as a calculation parameter on the packaging machine, so that its use is reserved for specially trained operating personnel.
  • the EP 2 668 102 B1 discloses a packaging machine and a method for producing individually evacuated and / or gassed packages. It is generally further disclosed that a means can be used with which the filling level of the packaging material in the respective packaging tray and / or the filling quantity of the packaging material within the respective packaging tray can be determined. Depending on this measurement signal, a shut-off device can then be regulated, for example, in order to individually regulate the volume of gas that is withdrawn from or supplied to the respective packaging tray.
  • a degree of filling of the packaging positioned within the sealing station is calculated based on the comparison of the recorded pressure profile with the reference pressure profile and / or a volume flow with regard to the pressure profile or the reference pressure profile and the at least one process parameter on the packaging machine taking into account the calculated degree of filling and / or the volume flow is set.
  • a degree of filling of a "fume cupboard" provided within the sealing station ie the the respective packaging processed per machine cycle in one work process at the sealing station, as well as, if necessary, based thereon, in adaptation to the respective withdrawal, the volume flow of the gassing medium can be determined.
  • the comparison of the pressure curve with the reference pressure curve is carried out in good time, ie during a predeterminable time window at the beginning of filling, that for the same draw in real time, optionally a degree of filling and / or a volume flow can be foreseen (calculable ) is, that is, the process parameter can be set during the remaining filling time, that is, before a variable final gas pressure is reached within the package volume.
  • the time window for the aforementioned comparison can be timed in such a way that the present print itself can still be influenced in a process-controlled manner based on the comparison carried out in this regard. Such an advantageous cascading can lead to a higher process accuracy.
  • An advantageous variant of the invention provides that a quotient of a ratio of a time recorded for the pressure profile and a time recorded for the reference pressure profile is subtracted from a whole in order to calculate the degree of filling.
  • a variable time window can be selected for recording the pressure profile on the packaging machine.
  • a larger time window for recording the pressure profile could also be selected for longer-lasting gassing processes, because this enables a more precise prediction of the current filling level and / or volume flow to be carried out.
  • the offset printing could be adapted automatically at least at intervals, but preferably per machine cycle, so that varying fill levels can be better taken into account during production.
  • optically equivalent packaging i.e. packaging with the same target gas pressure, can leave the sealing station.
  • the process parameter is preferably a gas velocity which is achieved at the respective gas pens designed to fill the packing volume.
  • This can be useful in view of the nature of the products, particularly the nature of food products placed in the packages. For example, it matters whether dimensionally stable, one-piece products with a solid surface finish, such as B. a piece of cheese, or products with unstable, in particular applied surface properties, e.g. B. breaded meat, are fumigated. Packagings with a high recorded degree of filling, in which breaded meat is inserted, could be fumigated with reduced gas velocity to avoid damage to the breading layer. On the other hand, gassing with a higher gas velocity for one-part pack contents formed with a stable surface could in principle be set for an increased production rate, in particular when a low degree of filling is detected.
  • the process parameter is a valve setting value, in particular a throttle valve position, which influences an evacuation and / or gassing process.
  • a valve setting value in particular a throttle valve position, which influences an evacuation and / or gassing process.
  • the valve setting value is preferably continuously adapted automatically during the manufacturing process, so that optimal process settings can always be used. This particularly favors precise gassing and offers excellent control for the manufacture of optically equivalent products.
  • the (free) packing volume is preferably connected to a collecting volume of known size and the (free) packing volume is calculated based on a detected pressure equalization.
  • a detected pressure equalization for example, an external storage device, an external gas tank or a volume created by the upper part of the tool of the sealing station can be used as the collecting volume of known size. This procedure can be used in particular for the precise calculation of a reference package volume of empty packages of a fume cupboard, which can then be used when calculating the reference pressure profile.
  • a separately provided gas tank could be designed to be lockable by means of an additional valve, so that the pressure equalization between it and the free packing volume can be precisely regulated.
  • a pressure change in the gas tank can then be recorded, which is used as the basis for calculating the volume transition, from which the remaining volume, i.e. the (free) packaging volume, can be calculated.
  • the Boyle-Mariotte law could again be used as the basis for calculation.
  • An improved variant provides that the process parameter is set continuously in view of averaged values of the degree of filling and / or the volume flow. As a result, the control effort on the packaging machine can be reduced. This can be of particular advantage in an operating situation in which there is a high probability that slight changes in the degree of filling will occur, for example when packing sliced sausage.
  • the pack volume filled with gas is formed in such a way that pressure equalization takes place between several packs positioned within the sealing station during the gassing process, in particular during the sealing stroke.
  • the respective packagings enclosed within a sealing chamber can be connected via a gap formed between the upper and the lower packaging material.
  • the process parameter can be an adjustable speed of a lifting movement of the sealing tool, which is adjustably mounted within the sealing station, so that it moves in such a way that the pressure equalization can take place reliably between the several packagings provided.
  • the principle according to the invention could precede the gassing process and take place during an evacuation process. It would thus be possible to functionally transfer the explanations described above in connection with the invention to the evacuation process, so that a process-controlled parameter setting based thereon can already take place during the evacuation process and then during the gassing process.
  • process parameters can also be set outside the sealing station, i.e. at other work stations of the packaging machine, in such a way that the respective work stations of the packaging machine can work together excellently in order to achieve an improved production result.
  • the invention thus contributes to an overall process-controlled packaging machine.
  • control unit is designed as a process-controlled sequence control, so that an operation of the packaging machine can be perfectly adapted to the respective actual measured variables is.
  • control unit can optionally determine the filling level and / or volume flow based on a comparison of the pressure profile with a reference pressure profile provided for the manufacturing situation. Based on this, the control unit sets at least one process parameter of at least one further actuator of the packaging machine.
  • process parameters are formed as output signals in accordance with a control algorithm for performing the aforementioned comparison, which via actuators to a control object (technological process, control path) provided on the packaging machine, for example to at least one work process on the Sealing station, act.
  • Fig. 1 shows a schematic representation of a sealing station S 'according to the prior art.
  • the sealing station S ' has an upper sealing tool part SO' and a lower sealing tool part SU 'which can be closed with the upper sealing tool part SO' and which is designed to receive preformed packaging trays VM '.
  • Packaging trays VM 'shown are packaging contents I', ie products, added whose degrees of filling FG 'are different.
  • the sealing station S ' forms a sealing chamber SK', in which the packaging trays VM 'together with an upper film O' positioned above it enclose an airtight packaging volume P ', which consists of a partial volume V1' and a partial volume V2 '.
  • the partial volume V1 ' is composed of the sum of the respective packaging tray volumes created by the packaging trays VM' and released by the products.
  • the partial volume V2 ' forms an imaginary partial volume which is enclosed between the upper film O' and an imaginary plane E 'shown in dashed lines.
  • a connecting gap SP ' is formed above the packaging troughs VM', which, in particular during the filling process, allows the gas G 'to be distributed within the entire packaging volume P'.
  • a sealing tool SW for example a height-adjustable sealing frame, is positioned within the sealing tool upper part SO 'for a sealing process, which is designed to move the upper film O' for the sealing process in the direction of the packaging trays VM 'provided below by means of a lifting movement H'.
  • Fig. 2 shows a schematic view of a packaging machine 1, which is designed in the form of a thermoforming packaging machine T.
  • the packaging machine 1 has a forming station 2, a sealing station 3, a cross-cutting device 4 and a longitudinal cutting device 5. These are arranged in this order in a working direction R on a machine frame 6.
  • a feed roller 7 is arranged on the input side of the machine frame 6 of the packaging machine 1, from which a lower film U is pulled off as the lower packaging material 8.
  • the lower film U is transported into the forming station 2 by means of a feed device (not shown).
  • packaging trays 14 are formed in the lower film U by means of the forming station 2.
  • the packaging trays 14 are then transported on to an insertion section 15, where they are manually or automatically with a product 16 can be filled. Following the insertion section 15, the packaging trays 14 filled with the products 16 are transported on to the sealing station 3.

  • a pressure P IST see FIG Fig. 3
  • the control unit 11 can continuously be transmitted current pressure values during the manufacturing process, that is to say the respective pressure curves, during the gassing and / or evacuation process.
  • control unit 11 is connected to a schematically illustrated memory 17 so that it can access reference values stored thereon for generating process parameters, in particular for adapting such parameters. For example, it can compare the pressure profile recorded as an input variable at the sealing station 3 by means of the sensor system 12 with a corresponding reference pressure profile of the memory 17, optionally determining a degree of filling and / or a volume flow in a first step using an algorithm and then in a further step is generated based on at least one process parameter as an output variable, on the basis of which the manufacturing process can be adapted, so that the packaging machine 1 is able to optimally adapt the manufacturing process running on it to the respective filling states.

  • the pressure sensor 18 is functionally connected to the control unit 11, which is configured to further calculate the pressure P IST transmitted to it as an input variable.
