The packing machine comprising a passageway for continuous strip movement is intended for continuous and cyclical molding, filling, sealing and at least group-wise severing of containers, and comprises deep-drawing stations located along the path of continuous movement of the strip. In order to enable ordered product lots to be manufactured on such a machine, which lots contain different product components, for example, as regards filling quantities, types of product dressings and the like, the machine is configured such that the deep-drawing station (I) is furnished with a molding tool (1), that the molding tool (1) of the deep-drawing station (I) is provided with a variety of groups (2) of container shapes (4) of different volume, and that each group (2) of the molding tool, selectively and automatically, is formed, with the molding tool (1) to be adjustable into the deep-drawing position (3) relative to the continuously moving strip, that the filling station located behind the deep-drawing station (I) is formed of a variety of selectively operable loading stations (II) corresponding in number to the number of the groups (2), which loading stations are located in series above the path (5) of continuous movement, with the product feed-in lines (6) of the loading stations (II) leading to a corresponding number of product storage containers (7), and that the covering station (III) disposed behind the loading stations (II) is formed of a variety of selectively and automatically operable covering means (8) corresponding in number to the number of the groups (2).
