CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application claims priority to German Application Number 102011110407.4 filed Aug. 12, 2011 to Bernd Jokele entitled “Sealing Station and Method for its Operation,” currently pending, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0002]The present invention relates to a sealing station for packaging and a method for operating a sealing station.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0003]A packaging machine with a sealing station, for example, from DE 102 37 933 A1, is known in the art. The sealing station comprises a sealing tool that seals a cover film onto a packaging tray by means of pressure. Normally, a plurality of packaging trays are arranged next to one another horizontally and in a plurality of rows. The pressure applied for the sealing thereby drops as the number of horizontally arranged packaging trays increases, because the sealing force is distributed across a greater surface area. Detrime...
