METHOD FOR PRODUCING FLEXIBLE TUBE BODIES FOR PACKAGING TUBES, FLEXIBLE TUBE BODY FOR PACKAGING TUBES, AND DEVICE FOR PRODUCING FLEXIBLE TUBE BODIES FOR PACKAGING TUBES

摘要

The invention relates to a method for producing flexible tube bodies (18) for packaging tubes from a film substrate (1) which has a print, preferably on an outer side (2), and which has or consists of at least one weldable plastic layer and which comprises a first longitudinal edge side (8), which extends in a longitudinal direction, and a second longitudinal edge side (8') parallel thereto and spaced apart therefrom, wherein the film substrate (1) is shaped by shaping means (23) to form a tube, and the two longitudinal edge sides (8, 8') are in particular welded to one another with the formation of a longitudinal weld seam, wherein a strip (12) is arranged, in the region of the abutment point and/or of the longitudinal weld seam, in the interior (17) of the film substrate (1) shaped to form the tube and is connected, in particular welded, to the longitudinal edge sides (8, 8') at least in certain regions or portions. According to the invention, prior to the formation of the longitudinal weld seam, at least one longitudinal edge side (8') is shaped, in particular cut, in such a way that, in the film substrate (1) shaped to form the tube, the longitudinal edge sides (8, 8') bear against one another, in particular in abutting fashion, radially only in the region of the outer side (2) with at least one tip (9) formed by the shaping operation.
