摘要：
Various exemplary surgical tool wrists are provided. In general, a surgical tool can include an elongate shaft and a wrist that couples an end effector to a distal end of the shaft. The surgical tool can include multiple elongate members configured to move, either individually or as a group of two or more of the elongate members, to cause movement of the end effector relative to the shaft. Each of the surgical tool's elongate members can be configured to extend along a helical path. Each of the elongate members can extend proximally from its associated helical path to a pulley at the wrist. The helical paths can be configured to guide the elongate members to approach and engage their respective pulleys at a substantially zero angle.Various exemplary surgical tool wrists are provided.

A first film can be conveyed through a horizontal form-fill-seal machine that contains tooling stations in which bottom sealer bars are positioned in different tooling stations relative to side sealer bars. The first film can be processed by the machine to form a first pouch. After the first pouch is formed, a vertical height of one or more of the side sealer bars and/or one or more of the bottom sealer bars can be selectively adjusted. The same bottom and side sealer bars remain in the machine during the sele
