Abstract

A machine and method for making bags is described and includes a web traveling from an input section to a rotary drum, to an output section The rotary drum includes at least one seal bar, having a first sealing zone and an adjacent weakening zone The weakening zone may be a heated perforator, includes a heating wire, or be disposed to create an auxiliary sealed area The heating wire can have collected thereto, a source of power that is at an adjustable voltage or magnitude, and/or pulsed, and/or a feedback loop The heating wire may be NiCr wire and make intermittent contact with the web and be disposed in an insert The weakening zone may create a line of weakness that is uniform or varies in intensity, is a separating zone, or includes a heat film toothed blade, row of pins, source of air, or a source of vacuum.
