The invention concerns a process and an apparatus for the production of chain-like or concatenated foodstuff products, such as sausages (46) or the like, wherein a pasty filling material such as for example sausage meat is conveyed by means of a filling pump through a filling tube (8) which is rotatable about its longitudinal axis (7), and introduced into a tubular case or skin (10) which partially surrounds the filling tube (8), wherein the filled skin (10) is fed to a portioning device (4) having a plurality of dividing elements (42) which are disposed in opposite paired relationship and which are movable synchronously together with the filled skin (10), and the filled skin (10) is engaged by two dividing elements (42) which are disposed in opposite paired relationship and acted upon by a clamping force, and wherein a rotational moment is applied to the skin (10) by the filling tube (8) by rotation of the filling tube (8) so that the filled skin (10) is caused to rotate at least in a portion (22) between an exit opening of the filling tube (8) and the portioning device (4) and is locally prevented from rotating by application of the clamping force by the dividing elements (42), so that a twist-off location (44) is produced, and wherein, at a location spaced from a twist-off location (44) produced, a further twist-off location (44) is produced on the filled skin, so that portioned sausages (46) or the like are produced. In accordance with the invention it is provided that the filling material flows into the skin (10) radially at least partially through openings (14) provided in the end region of the filling tube (8) in the peripheral wall thereof and the diameter of the skin (10) is increased in the end region of the filling tube (8) by virtue of the at least partial radial flow into same.
