Embodiment Construction

[0034]A perspective view of the essential components of the packaging unit proposed according to the invention can be seen in the illustration according to FIG. 1. The illustration according to FIG. 1 reveals that a packaging unit 10, in particular a banding unit, has a feeding region 12 which comprises a lateral pushing-in means 13 into a processing plane 30. The feeding region is understood below as meaning a feeding table, a feeding plane or else a working plane of a handling unit.

[0035]The magazine 18 which is arranged in an inclined manner is accommodated in the machine frame 16 of the packaging unit 10, with a number of preferably tape-shaped banding tapes 20 being stored lying one above another in the magazine 18. An applicator 22 which can be controlled by a commercially available PC is located above the magazine 18. The applicator 22 is part of a labeller or other printing head, such as, for example, an inkjet printer. When a label which is pre-printed or is printed online ...
