A plastic or other film bag is formed from a continuous extruded tube. The tube is flattened and sealed across its width at intervals to form bag bottoms. The bags are joined to one another at a perforation line and folded in thirds lengthwise prior to being rolled into a compact roll, either with or without supporting core. After folding the bags may be chisel cut through the center of the perforation line to assist in dispensing of the bags. The chisel cut will extend through all layers of the bag when folded, resulting in three chisel cuts in the bag. The bags may be gusseted for part or as much as all of their width. The bags may also be corona treated and printed on their outer surfaces. The bags may be formed from partially recycled materials and various combinations of linear low density, medium and high density polyethylene.

1. An apparatus for making a tri-fold bag roll, comprising: a supply of either of plastic and other extrudable film material;an extruder, said extruder capable of forming a seamless continuous tube of thin +film from said material;a tubing flattener, said flattener capable of flattening said continuous tube into a flattened tube, said flattened tube having a first predetermined thickness, first and second side edges and upper and lower interior surfaces disposed adjacent one another;a sealer, said sealer capable of forming a series of seals in said flattened tube perpendicular to a long axis of said tube;a folder, said folder comprising: a separate rigid, planar platen, said platen having a first end and a second end, being disposed adjacent said flattened tube and having a width at said second end slightly less than a width of said tri-fold bag;said platen having first and second curved side edges, a distance between said side edges tapering from said first end to said second end;first and second separate guide bars, said first guide bar having a concave cross-section and upper and lower inside surfaces and being formed to fit closely adjacent said first side edge, said second guide bar having a concave cross-section and upper and lower inside surfaces and being formed to fit closely adjacent said second side edge, said upper and lower inside surfaces of said second guide bar being spaced apart sufficiently to accommodate said platen and twice said first predetermined thickness of said flattened tube, said upper and lower inside surfaces of said first guide bar being spaced apart sufficiently to accommodate said platen and three times said first predetermined thickness of said flattened tube, said upper inside surface and an upper outside surface of said second guide bar;said bars guiding said first and second side edges of said flattened tube over said platen and said first side edge over said second side edge to form a continuous, compact C-folded flattened tube surrounding said second end of said platen in a single operation;a perforator, said perforator capable of perforating said compact flattened tube through six film layers and forming a perforation line; anda bag roller, said bag roller capable of rolling said perforated compact flattened tube into a compact roll. 2. The apparatus for making a tri-fold bag roll, as described in claim 1, further comprising at least one creasing roller, said creasing roller disposed adjacent said second end of said platen and bearing against said C-folded flattened tube to reinforce folds in said flattened tube. 3. The apparatus for making a tri-fold bag roll, as described in claim 1, further comprising a chisel cutter, said chisel cutter capable of forming a chisel cut through said six film layers at a center point of said perforation line. 4. The apparatus for making a tri-fold bag roll, as described in claim 1, further comprising a supply of cores, said compact bag web being wound around said core to form said compact bag roll. 5. The apparatus for making a tri-fold bag roll, as described in claim 1, further comprising a gusseter, said gusseter capable of forming at least one side gusset in said continuous tube prior to flattening. 6. The apparatus for making a tri-fold bag roll, as described in claim 1, further comprising a corona treater, said corona treater capable of corona treating at least one upper and lower surface of said continuous bag web prior to folding. 7. The apparatus for making a tri-fold bag roll, as described in claim 6, further comprising a printer, said printer capable of printing on at least one of said upper and lower surfaces of said continuous bag web after corona treatment. 8. The apparatus for making a tri-fold bag roll, as described in claim 1, wherein said folder divides said continuous flattened tube into a first side portion, a center portion and a last side portion and folds said first side portion over said center portion and said last side portion over said first side portion, thereby forming a C-fold bag web and C-fold bags.
