Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A device and a method for applying elastic film sleeves to containers, including a plurality of revolving stretching units for receiving and stretching the film sleeves so that the containers can be slid into the film sleeves. The stretching units include spreading fingers driven by servo motors, such that the stretching of the film sleeves can be optimized independently of a circulation speed of the stretching units and flexibly adapted to different film types and container sizes.
