METHOD OF CLOSING TUBULAR OR BAG-LIKE CONTAINERS, CLOSING NON-METALLIC CLIP FOR MAKING THE METHOD AND MACHINE FOR INTRODUCTION OF THE CLIP

摘要

The closing of tubular casings containing foodstuffs by mounting a binder on a constriction of the casing involves the traditional problem of a high waste percentage due to the binders either damaging the casing material or sliding off the constriction. A method and a binder are proposed which makes it possible to obtain a very strong clamping of the binder without damaging the casing material, and, in connection with tight plastic casings, it is even possible to provide a "super tight" closure, by arranging the constriction with an oblong cross section between opposed straight clamping beams, which are forced together so as to produce a controlled deformation flowing of the casing material.
