摘要

A method for the removal of an outer packaging (8) of cigarette packs, in which the cigarette packs to a slitting (13) are moved, on the slitting (13) the outer packaging (8) by means of a separating device (5) is separated, and after the slitting (13) the outer packaging be separated and the remaining cigarette pack,characterized in thata) the plastic film (8) is detached, the a cigarette pack (7) or a bundle of cigarette packs surrounds,b) the separating device (5) of a laser beam is used, in order to separate the plastic film (8), and thatc) the local energy density of the laser beam at the point of separation is controlled such that the energy density at the plastic film (8) essentially maximized and on the subjacent cigarette pack is substantially minimised.
