Patent

CA 2159202

A method for packaging bodies (1), primarily bales (1) of moist or wet animal-feed, by wrapping the body in a thin plastic film band (2), wherein a plastic web is wound onto the body in successive turns (3) while maintaining the web in tension. The web is taken from a magazine (4) while rotating the body about its longitudinal axis (5), which is preferably essentially horizontal, with the turns extending generally parallel with and transversely to the longitudinal axis, wherein wrapping of the body is terminated by gripping the web at a web part located between the magazine and the body, therewith severing the web. The method is mainly characterized in that the plastic web (2) is caused to extend transversely to the longitudinal axis (5) and herewith run from the magazine (4) essentially tangentially to the body (1) and transversely to the longitudinal axis, before the web is gripped at the web part located adjacent the body. This invention also relates to a body wrapping arrangement.
